- JoeAltmaier 3y agoMaple and Mulberry are unrelated for instance. Stinging Nettle and Strawberries are related - their common ancestor was something like a tree. It's all pretty confused. More accurately: the common ancestor of modern 'trees' is often not a tree at all. Like, fruitflies and humans have an ancestor but it's neither fly nor human.
