red and small berries in my garden

The image above shows berries of Mock Strawberry in my garden.
In Japanese, we call it "Yabu Hebi-Ichigo" that means "Tussock Snake Strawberry" in terms of literal translation, because, it is traditionally said that snake eats this berry.
But, actually snake never eats such berry.
The Mock Strawberry blooms small yellow flower as shown in the image below.
Thank you for your viewing, and have a wonderful day!

Flowering of Mock Strawberry

It is a very small flower. Diameter of the flower is about 1.5cm at most.
The flower of Mock Strawberry has five petals normally, but I found a flower which has six petals that might be a mutation.
I felt a bit joy like found a four-leaf clover.

The photo was taken by EOS 7D + Planar 50mm f/1.4 + Extension Tube EF12 II on 30th April in my garden.
