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.
