Rosaceae(therose faimily) are a medium-sizedfaimilyoflouerin plants,includin aboot 2830 speshies in 95 genera.[3]The name is derived frae the teep genusRosa.Among the lairgest genera areAlchemilla(270),Sorbus(260),Crataegus(260),Cotoneaster(260), andRubus(250).[3]The lairgest genus bi far isPrunus(plums, cherries, peaches, apricots an awmonds) wi aboot 430 speshies. However, aw o these numbers should be seen as unnerestimates - much taxonomic wirk is left tae be done here.
