Apricot

An apricot is a fruit or the tree that bears the fruit of several species in the genus ''Prunus'' (stone fruits). Usually, an apricot tree is from the species ''P. armeniaca'', but the species ''P. brigantina'', ''P. mandshurica'', ''P. mume'', and ''P. sibirica'' are closely related, have similar fruit, and are also called apricots.
== Description ==

The apricot is a small tree, tall, with a trunk up to in diameter and a dense, spreading canopy. The leaves are ovate, long and wide, with a rounded base, a pointed tip and a finely serrated margin. The flowers are in diameter, with five white to pinkish petals; they are produced singly or in pairs in early spring before the leaves. The fruit is a drupe similar to a small peach, diameter (larger in some modern cultivars), from yellow to orange, often tinged red on the side most exposed to the sun; its surface can be smooth (botanically described as: glabrous) or velvety with very short hairs (botanically: pubescent). The flesh is usually firm and not very juicy. Its taste can range from sweet to tart. The single seed is enclosed in a hard, stony shell, often called a "stone", with a grainy, smooth texture except for three ridges running down one side.〔Flora of China: (''Armeniaca vulgaris'' )〕〔Rushforth, K.
