pome
Core-bearing fruit
A pome is a type of fruit with a fleshy outer layer surrounding a core of seeds—apples, pears, and quinces are the familiar examples.
The term is botanical, distinguishing these fruits from drupes (stone fruits like peaches) and berries.
The orchard specializes in pome fruits.
