apricot tree
Produces fuzzy drupes
An apricot tree is a small deciduous fruit tree native to Asia, cultivated for its orange-fleshed stone fruit.
The trees bloom early in spring with pink or white flowers, making them vulnerable to late frosts.
The apricot tree in our backyard produces more fruit than we can eat.
