Pomona
Roman harvest goddess
Pomona is the Roman goddess of fruit trees, orchards, and gardens—one of the few deities native to Roman religion rather than borrowed from Greece.
The name appears across American geography, most notably Pomona, California, and Pomona College.
A pomona is also a book cataloguing apple varieties, from the goddess's association with orchards.
