Tree Fruits
Tree fruits are the edible products that grow on trees, providing essential nutrients and flavors. Common examples include apples, oranges, and cherries. These fruits develop from flowers and contain seeds, which help in the reproduction of the tree. They can be enjoyed fresh, cooked, or processed into products like juice and jam.
Tree fruits are typically categorized into two main types: deciduous and evergreen. Deciduous trees, such as peach and pear, lose their leaves in winter, while evergreen trees, like citrus varieties, retain their foliage year-round. Both types play a vital role in ecosystems, supporting wildlife and contributing to biodiversity.
