Gotcha, Iris!!!

An aggregate fruit is a cluster of small fruits arising from a single
flower.

A multiple fruit is a cluster of fruit arising from different flowers on the
same plant.

A pineapple is a multiple fruit, as also is an "Osage Orange" and "Bread
fruit".

Is pineapple a fruit?

I once got a pineapple to bloom & set fruit indoors. What we call a
pineapple
is an aggregate fruit, like a raspberry. The cultivated pineapple is
seedless &
reproduced asexually, like cultivated bananas.
