| | Almond - Prunus dulcis |
 | | Almond flowers are nearly identical to peach and other Prunus flowers in structure, but light pink or white in color, and fragrant. | | | Almond seedlings are used as rootstocks in less-intensive orchards of the Mediterranean area, where soils are calcareous and irrigation is not available. | | | Almonds bloom in late February in California, and frost is a perennial problem. |

| | Almond - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The application of "Shaked" or "hasten" to the almond is similar to the use of the name "May" for the hawthorn, which usually flowers in that month in Britain. | | | It is a tree of moderate size; the leaves are lanceolate, and serrated at the edges; and it flowers early in spring. | | | In the United States, production is concentrated in California, with almonds being California's sixth leading argicultrual product and its top agricultural export. |
