Are they still wild strawberries if I grew them in a pot? Or are they more like semi-feral strawberries? 😜😂

We call them "Smultron" in Sweden and they are just what strawberries where before cultivation. My garden is full of them.

interestingly modern strawberries are just a hybrid between two (or maybe more) species of wild strawberries, AFAIK there wasn't even that much cultivation done to get them big!
