Fruit and Veggie Family
Plants are classified into groups based on similarities in, for example, their flowers & fruits. For example, the Cucurbitaceae family, squash, cucumber, melon, gourds, pumpkin, produces male & female flowers that need bees to pollinate. But some similarities, like fruit color or shape, can mislead – like the orange color of pumpkins & tangerines.
