SECTION 1



FRUIT




The term fruit has many different meanings depending on context. In botany,
a fruit is the ripened ovary—together with seeds—of a flowering plant. In
many species, the fruit incorporates the ripened ovary and the surrounding
tissues. Fruits are the means by which flowering plants disseminate seeds.

In cuisine, when discussing fruit as food, the term usually refers to those
plant fruits that are sweet and fleshy, examples of which include plums,
apples and oranges.

However, a great many common vegetables, as well as nuts and grains, are the
fruit of that plant species. No single terminology really fits the enormous
variety that is found among plant fruits. The cuisine terminology for fruits
is inexact and will remain so.

FRUIT
TREES




A fruit tree is a tree bearing fruit — the structures formed by the
ripened ovary of a flower containing one or more seeds. However,
because all trees of flowering plants produce fruit (essentially all
trees except tree ferns and gymnosperms), the term in horticultural
usage applies to trees providing fruit as human food.

Types of fruits are described and defined elsewhere, but would include
fruit in a culinary sense as well as some nut bearing trees, like
walnuts.

ORCHARDS




An orchard is an intentional planting of trees or shrubs maintained for
food production. Most orchards comprise either fruit or nut-producing
trees, for commercial production. Orchards are also sometimes a feature
of large gardens, where they serve an aesthetic as well as a productive
purpose.

PRUNING
FRUIT
TREES




Pruning fruit trees is a technique that is employed by gardeners to
control growth, remove dead or diseased wood or stimulate the formation
of flowers and fruit buds.

The most economical pruning is done early in the season, when buds begin to
break, and one can pinch off the soft tissue with one's fingers (hence the
expression "nipped in the bud"). Many home fruit growers make the mistake
of planting a tree, then neglecting it until it begins to bear. But careful
attention to pruning and training young trees will ultimately determine
their productivity and longevity.

Good pruning and training will also prevent later injury from weak crotches
that break under snow or fruit load.

NUTS




A nut can be either a seed or a fruit.

A nut in botany is a simple dry fruit with one seed (rarely two) in
which the ovary wall becomes very hard (stony or woody) at maturity,
and where the seed remains unattached or unfused with the ovary wall.

Most nuts come from pistils with inferior ovaries and all are indehiscent
(not opening at maturity). True nuts are produced, for example, by some
plants.
