Can fruit be an independent subject?

[cthawley]

Staff have noted that fruits should generally be considered evidence of the parent plant until they germinate

@tiwane

You’re talking about the actual fruit itself, correct? Not the plants that grow out of the seeds? Personally, for iNat’s purposes, I’d consider them evidence of the plant they came from, not a separate organism. If the seed germinates and grows, then I’d consider a wild new organism for iNat.
