Apricot Tree/杏子树/살구나무

시댁 옆집에 열린 살구들이 정말 탐스럽네요..

29/6/2014，周末回到家乡去。邻居家门口的杏子树结满了果实。。杏（學名：Prunus armeniaca），其果又稱杏子、杏實，是李属李亚属植物，其果肉、果仁均可食用.
When back to home town on the 29/6/2014,this is the apricot tree in front of my neighbour house....
Apricot tree is from the tree species Prunus armeniaca, but the species Prunus brigantina, Prunus mandshurica, Prunus mume, and Prunus sibirica are closely related, have similar fruit, and are also called apricots. 

The fruit is a drupe similar to a small peach, 1.5–2.5 cm (0.6–1.0 in) diameter (larger in some modern cultivars), from yellow to orange, often tinged red on the side most exposed to the sun; its surface can be smooth (botanically described as: glabrous) or velvety with very short hairs (botanically: pubescent). The flesh is usually firm and not very juicy. Its taste can range from sweet to tart.
落叶乔木；阔卵形或圆卵形叶子，边缘有钝锯齿；近叶柄顶端有二腺体；淡红色花单生或2－3个同生；圆、长圆或扁圆形核果，果皮多为金黄色，向阳部有红晕和斑点；暗黄色果肉，味甜多汁；核面平滑没有斑孔，核缘厚而有沟纹 (source: wikipedia)
