CLOUDBERRY

cloudberry, _rubus chamaemorus_, a low-growing creeping herbaceous plant, with stem not prickly, and with simple obtusely lobed leaves and solitary white flowers, resembling those of the blackberry, but larger--one inch across,--and with stamens and pistils on different plants. the orange-yellow fruit is about half an inch long and consists of a few large drupes with a pleasant flavour. the plant occurs in the mountainous parts of great britain, and is widely distributed through the more northerly portions of both hemispheres. in northern denmark and sweden the fruit is gathered in large quantities and sold in the markets.
