What Fruit Is a Member of the Rose Family?

Plants in the rose family mostly produce a dry seed, and there are some cases where the plant produces a false fruit. This occurrence is when the dry seed is enclosed with flesh that resembles a fleshy ovary, or fruit. Fruit is the result of the rose plants that do produce actual fleshy fruit around the seed. The strawberry is an inverted example of the dry seeds; the dry seeds stand outside of the flesh.
