Prunus armeniaca, commonly known as the apricot, is a deciduous tree belonging to the Rosaceae family. Native to China and Central Asia, it is widely cultivated for its small, golden-yellow fruit that has a sweet-tart flavour. Apricots are rich in vitamins A and C, dietary fibre, and antioxidants. Apricots are enjoyed fresh, dried, or used in various culinary dishes.
