Follicle (fruit) Follicle (fruit) In botany, a follicle is a dry unilocular fruit formed from one carpel, containing two or more seeds. It is usually defined as dehiscing by a suture in order to release seeds, for example in "Consolida" (some of the larkspurs), peony and milkweed ("Asclepias"). Some difficult cases exist however, so that the term indehiscent follicle is sometimes used, for example with the genus "Filipendula", which has indehiscent fruits that could be considered intermediate between a (dehiscent) follicle and an (indehiscent) achene. An aggregate fruit that consists of follicles may be called a follicetum. Examples include hellebore, aconite, "Delphinium",
