distribution_en:
description_en: Genus of 6 species of low-growing, more or less evergreen perennials from damp, shady woodland and streamsides in S. and E. Asia. The 5-petalled flowers are yellow and strawberry-like, as are the fruits that follow, although these are unpalatable. Rooting runners may be invasive in warm areas, but the fully divided, 3-palmate, conspicuously veined, toothed, strawberry-like leaves provide useful ground cover. D. indica also looks effective when grown as a houseplant, especially in a hanging basket.
hardiness_en: Fully hardy.
cultivation_en:
propagation_en: Sow seed in containers in a cold frame in autumn or spring, or detach and replant rooted plantlets at almost any time of year.
pests_en: Slugs and snails may eat fruits.
