ROSE FAMILY 
ROSACE/E 
One who has noticed the structure of the flower 
of the beautiful wild rose or who has studied with 
any care the equally beautiful apple blossoms has 
WILD STRAWBERRY 
gotten an idea of the structure of a typical ex- 
ample of the Rose family, which includes a large 
number of trees and shrubs as well as a few herba- 
ceous wild flowers. All the parts of the flower 
are present, there being five sepals and five petals, 
many stamens and one or more pistils.
