What do raspberries have in common with apples and strawberries?
At first blush, it may be difficult to find common characteristics between an apple and a strawberry or red raspberry. Not only are the edible fruits very different, but also there is wide disparity between sizes and structures of the plant itself and its fruit. One important botanical similarity, however, is the structure of the flower, as all these fruit plants typically have 5-7 white/pink petals around a central cluster of yellow stamens.
