About Prunus persica

Prunus persica (peach) is an economically important deciduous tree in the Rosaceae family that produces 20 million tons of fruit per year. The rosaceae family contains herbs, shrubs and trees with a wide variety of fruit types and habits and includes several species grown for their fruits (peaches, apples and strawberries), lumber (black cherry) and ornamental value (roses).
