fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Plum - Cultivation and uses

Plum fruit is sweet, juicy and edible, and it can be eaten fresh or used in jam-making or other recipes. Plum juice can be fermented into plum wine; when distilled, this produces a brandy known in Eastern Europe as Slivovitz. Dried plums are known as prunes. Prunes are sweet and juicy, and they have a very high dietary fiber content, so prune juice is often used to help regulate the functioning of the digestive system. It also contains several antioxidants that may slow aging. Prune marketers in the United States have, in recent years ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Mammee apple - Distribution and habitat

The tree comes from tropical South America. In 1529 it was included by Oviedo in his Review of the Fruits of the New World. It was then introduced to various regions in the Old World: West Africa, particularly Sierra Leone, Zanzibar, Southeast Asia and Hawaii. In the United States, the species is uniquely found in Hawaii and Florida. In this latter state, mammee apples were probably introduced from the Bahamas. The Mammea apple tree is confined to tropical or subtropical climates. In Central America the species is found to grow ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Olive fruit - History

It is not known exactly when the wild olive passed under the care of the husbandman and became the fruitful garden olive. The frequent references in the Bible to the plant and its produce, its implied abundance in the land of Canaan, and the important place it has always held in the economy of the inhabitants of Syria, lead us to consider that country the birthplace of the cultivated olive. An improved variety, possessed at first by some small Semitic sect, it was probably slowly distributed to adjacent tribes; and, yielding profusely, with ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Orchard - Orchards by region

The most extensive orchards in the United States are apple and orange orchards, although citrus orchards are more commonly called groves. The most extensive apple orchard area is in eastern Washington state, while there are extensive orange orchards in Florida and southern California. A particular advantage of growing apples on the high plateau areas of Washington state is that it is possible to grow high-quality organic apples. In eastern North America many orchards are along the shores of Lake Michigan, Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario. Murc ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Almond - Almond oil

"Oleum Amygdalae", the fixed oil, is prepared from either variety of almond and is a glyceryl oleate, with slight odour and a nutty taste. It is almost insoluble in alcohol but readily soluble in chloroform or ether. It may be used as a substitute for olive oil. The sweet almond oil is obtained from the dried kernel of the plant. This oil has been traditionally used by massage therapists to lubricate the skin during a massage session, being considered ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Almond - Sweet and bitter almond

There are two forms of the plant, one (often with white flowers) producing sweet almonds, and the other (often with pink flowers) producing bitter almonds. The kernel of the former contains a fixed oil and emulsion. As late as the early 20th century the oil was used internally in medicine, with the stipulation that it must not be adulterated with that of the bitter almond; it remains fairly popular in alternative medicine, particularly as a carrier oil in aromatherapy, ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Almond - Culinary uses

While the almond is most often eaten raw, it is used in some dishes. It, along with other nuts, is often sprinkled over desserts, particularly sundaes and other ice cream based dishes. It is also used in Baklava. There is also almond butter, a spread similar to peanut butter. The sweet almond itself contains practically no starch and may therefore be made into flour for cakes and biscuits for patients suffering from diabetes mellitus or any other form of glycosuria. Almond extract is also a popular substitute for vanilla extract among ...

The word 'almond' comes from the Old French almande or alemande, late Latin amandola, derived through a form amingdola from the Greek amugdale, an almond; the al- for a- may be due to a confusion with the Arabic article al, the word having first dropped the a- as in the Italian form mandorla; the British pronunciation ar-mond and the modern French amande ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Coppicing - Current practice

In Europe coppiced hardwoods were extensively used in shipbuilding (wooden ships) or carriagebuilding, and are now still grown, albeit in very small amounts, for making wooden buildings and furniture. In Southern Britain, coppice was traditionally hazel, grown amongst oak standards (large trees). This provided wood for many purposes, especially charcoal which before the availability of coal was economically significant in allowing smelting of metals. A minority of these woods are still operated for coppice today, often by conservation ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Tree - Morphology

The basic parts of a tree are the roots, trunk(s), branches, twigs and leaves. Tree stems consist mainly of support and transport tissues (xylem and phloem). Wood consists of xylem cells, and bark is made of phloem and other tissues external to the vascular cambium. Trees may be broadly grouped into exogenous and endogenous trees according to the way in which their stem diameter increases. Exogenous trees, which comprise the great majority of modern trees (all conifers, and all broadleaf trees), grow by the ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Tree - Classifications

A tree is a plant form and trees occur in many different orders and families of plants. Trees thus show a wide variety of growth form, leaf type and shape, bark characteristics, reproductive structures, etc. The earliest trees were tree ferns and horsetails, which grew in vast forests in the Carboniferous Period; tree ferns still survive, but the only surviving horsetails are not of tree form. Later, in the Triassic Period, conifers, ginkgos, cycads and other gymnosperms appeared, and subsequently flowering plants in the Cretaceous Pe ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Tree - Life stages

The life cycles of trees, especially conifers, are divided into the following stages in forestry for survey and documentation purposes: Seed Seedling: the above ground part of the embryo that sprout from the seed Sapling: After the seedling reaches 1m tall, and until it reaches 7cm in stem diameter Pole: young trees from 7-30cm diameter Mature tree: over 30cm diameter, reproductive years begin Old tree: dominate old growth forest; height growth slows greatly, with majority of producti ...

Shadow of the Colossus - Fruit Trees and Lizards. The world is populated with a number of lizards. Most are there only for looks, but some of them can provide a permanent boost to Wander's stamina. These lizards have white tails; at least one can be found at every save shrine in the world, but they can also be found in other places, preferably by using the "Lizard Detection Stone" (see Time Attack Rewards below). Fruit trees are mostly found in the southern half of the world and bear several fruits - once ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Tree - Champion trees

The world's champion trees can be considered on several factors; height, trunk diameter or girth, total size, and age. It is significant that in each case, the top position is always held by a conifer, though a different species in each case; in most measures, the second to fourth places are also held by conifers. Tallest trees The heights of the tallest trees in the world have been the subject of considerable dispute and much (often wild) exaggeration. Modern verified measurement with laser rangefinders combined w ...

fruit trees: Encyclopedia II - Apple - Botanical origins

The wild ancestor of Malus domestica is Malus sieversii. It has no common name in English, but is known where it is native as "alma"; in fact, the city where it is thought to originate is called Alma-Ata, or "father of the apples". This tree is still found wild in the mountains of Central Asia in southern Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Xinjiang, China. Some individual M. sieversii, recently planted by the US government at a research facility, resist many diseases and pests that affect domestic apples, and are the subject of continuing resear ...
