If you thought the white dots on strawberries are seeds, you’re about to have your mind blown.
You might have ignored the speckled surface as seeds, but in actuality, the dots scattered across strawberries are achenes, which are the plant’s fruit.
The ‘achene’ refers to the simple dry fruit created by a variety of different flowering species, including buckwheat and even cannabis.
Plants with achenes include dandelions and sunflowers while some have winged achenes, like maple fruits, elm, bush willows and hop trees.
