30 individuals from each population of the Fragaria vesca in the fruiting phenophase were collected in the ecologically different habitats. Morphological variation was investigated using 10 populations and 300 individuals. All specimens were properly preserved in a Formalin-Acetic Acid mixture and stored in herbarium. The fruits of Fragaria vesca were investigated in order to determine the most variable and the most consistent morphological character, depending on the environmental factors under which they developed. Each population and its belonging individuals were labeled with special numbers. The percentage of variability for the height of fruit is 24.338% and for the width of fruit is 25.747%. However, considering high resource values of strawberries, it is necessary to emphasize that the size of the fruit follows the overall size of an individual.
