Prunus armeniaca

Description

A small, round-headed tree to 8m with mid-green foliage rounded at the base with a long, pointed tip. White or pink-tinged flowers up to 2cm across appear in early to mid-spring, before the leaves, followed by succulent, edible, red-tinged, yellow-orange fruit. Many cultivated varieties of apricot have been developed from this species.
