	Botany - The Rose Family (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Members of the family usually have stipules (the pair of green flaps at the base of the leaf), often have thorns or prickles, and their flowers tend to have their parts in multiples of 5, with large numbers (more than 12) of stamens.
		Flowers of most members of the family have a hypanthium, which is a bowl- or cup-shaped structure, made up of the bases of the sepals, petals, stamens, and part of the receptacle (the end of the stem to which the flower is attached), all fused together.
		Most of what you eat is actually swollen hypanthium, and the core that gets thrown away is the true fruit (derived from the ovary of the flower).

		Hypanthium: The cup formed from the receptacle and/or perianth that has fused with the androecium.
		Perigynous: The perianth (sepals and petals) and androecium (male parts) are fused at the base so that the sepals, petals, and stamens appear to arise from the rim of a floral cup (the hypanthium).

	Botany Glossary "H"
		The hypanthium is found only in dicots and is a fusion of the calyx, corolla, and androecium whorls forming a small cup-shaped structure that surrounds the ovary.
		The base of the hypanthium is typically attached to the receptacle as is the case with the members of the rose family (Rosaceae) and is therefore said to by hypogynous.
		The hypanthium can also be epigynous, that is, attached to the top of the ovary, as is the case with the fuschia flower.

		A flower is perigynous if the perianth and stamens are fused at the base to form a hypanthium, or cup-like structure that surrounds the ovary, but is free from it.
		The hypanthium may also be formed from the tissue of the receptacle.
		A flower is epigynous if the hypanthium is fused to the ovary with the result that the sepals, petals, and stamens appear to be inserted in the top of the ovary.

		The fruit morphology is very diverse from rose hips (swollen hypanthium surrounding numerous achenes), to strawberries (enlarged fleshy receptacle covered with achenes) to flberries (aggregate fruit with an elongate receptacle bearing numerous drupelets) to the inferior ovary of the apple’s pome, and the almond’s drupe.

		Even more profoundly different from our Standard Blossom is the fact that the ovaries are positioned on the side of a cuplike structure known as the hypanthium.

		Because of the way in which epigynous flowers develop, an inferior ovary may be referred to as a hypanthial ovary, referring to the hypanthium illustrated below.
		beneath the insertion of the perianth and androecium members, the resulting tube is called a "floral tube" or hypanthium.
		As illustrated at the right, hypanthia may be associated with either superior or inferior ovaries; in the former case the flower may be described as perigynous.

		In roses (the genus Rosa, Rosaceae), the flowers (left) have a large hypanthium that encloses the many distinct carpels.
		The sepals, petals, and stamens arise from around the top of the hypanthium, while the styles and stigmas protrude through the opening in the hypanthium.
		Each carpel matures (right) into an achene, and the achenes are enclosed by the red, fleshy hypanthium.

	ROSIDAE
		The flowers tend to be actinimorphic, the perianth 5-merous and differentiated into calyx and corolla.
		Many members of the order are monocarpous or apocarpous, and there is a trend towards elaboration of a hypanthium, resulting in perigyny and epigyny.
		Some herbaceous members of subfamily Rosoideae in which the hypanthium is not well developed bear a striking resemblance to some Ranunculaceae (e.g.
