Our fruit plants
The term “Citrus” includes species of the genera Citrus, x Citrofortunella and Fortunella. They are medium-sized trees with a very fragrant flowering that are grown in warm lands to exploit their vitamin-rich fruits. The orange tree is the most cultivated fruit tree in the world.
CITRUS
The designation of stone-prunoids includes trees and shrubs of the genus Prunus, of the Rosaceae family, native to temperate regions, especially in the northern hemisphere, which include fruit-bearing species such as plum, cherry, apricot, sour cherry and peach trees.
The designation of Pomoideas consists exclusively of shrubs and small trees. Most produce pome fruit, a type of accessory fruit not found in other roses. Its main feature is the production of pseudofruits (considered fruits in human consumption) that are well known, such as apple (Malus), pear (Pyrus) and quince (Cydonia). The fruit pulp results from the development of the floral receptacle, being soft in the case of the pear and harder in the case of the apple. The carpels are easily seen by cutting the fruit through the center.
In its present taxonomic circumscription the group includes approximately 28 genera that group about 1100 species, most of which have a natural distribution in the temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere.

SHEEPNESSES
AND PUMOIDS
In common and culinary parlance, the term small fruit or "berry" usually refers to any small, sweet fruit. So in this sense, contrary to the botanical sense, a strawberry or a blackberry will be berries, and a banana or an orange will not.
The fruit of citrus fruits, such as oranges, kumquats and lemons, is a modified berry called hesperidium. The fruit of cucumbers and their relatives are modified berries called "pseudoberries" or peponies.
In colloquial parlance, berry refers to any small fruit with multiple seeds. Aggregate fruits such as blackberries and raspberries are berries in this sense, but not in the botanical sense.
Many berries are small, sweet, juicy and brightly colored. Contrasting with their context, they are more attractive to animals that eat them, helping to disperse the plant's seeds. Most berries are edible, but some are poisonous.
The berry's colors are due to natural pigments synthesized by the plant. Medicinal properties of pigmented polyphenols such as flavonoids, anthocyanins, tannin and other phytochemicals found mainly in berry skins and seeds have been discovered. The berry pigments are usually antioxidantsand thus, have an Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) that is high among edible plants. Along with the good nutritional content, the term "free radical absorbency" encompasses several berries within a new functional food category called "superfruits".
FrTopical sewers,are those that have a better production in places with higher temperature climates. They are produced by plants from different types of ecosystems.
It has a better production in places with higher temperature climates and is produced by plants from different types of ecosystem.
As tropical fruits, they share an intolerance for low temperature climates.
Many tropical fruits still manage to withstand dry weather. But fruits like the cashew live only in sandy lands.
Most are rich in antioxidants, essential for fighting free radicals in human bodies.
