An apple is a sweet, edible fruit produced by an apple tree.
|
|
|
|
Apple trees are cultivated worldwide, and are the most widely grown species in
|
|
the genus Malus. The tree originated in Central Asia, where its wild ancestor,
|
|
Malus sieversii, is still found today. Apples have been grown for thousands of
|
|
years in Asia and Europe, and were brought to North America by European
|
|
colonists. |
