Nectarines, Peaches & Apricots
Peaches, Nectarines & Apricots are drupes because of their single, large wood-encased seeds most people call pits
The ancient Chinese considered the peach a symbol of long life and immortality. These "Persian apples" actually had their beginning in China, but were developed in Persia and went from there to Europe and then to America with the colonists.
