Peaches and Nectarines

It is itself alive (the cells of the peach are alive) and it contains a seed which is alive and capable of making a new peach tree.

A bushel is determined by weight not by the number. The weight for a bushel of pears is 50 pounds and a bushel of peaches is 48 pounds.

No these is not, althought the pit of the nectarine does look like an almond

It depends on your soil type, fertilization, growing season type or cultavar of peach and location (what zone you are in ) . I am in zone 8-A here in Washington and have 12 peach trees. My 'Frost' trees took 3 years to bare , 'Elberta' only 2 and my 'Redhaven' two of them took 3 years and the rest took 4 and one even took 5 years to bare. I had almost given up on the late bloomer but as of today 07jun09 it has twice as many peaches as the other 'Redhaven'

Peach has long yellow hair. And she always wear a pink dress with a blue necklace and earrings and a crown. Unless she is playing sports. If she was playing sports she will wear pink shorts and a pink shirt pink shoes and white socks blue earrings and necklace and a crown. If she was racing on a bike she would wear a pink motor cyicle outfit and some pink boots with blue earrings and necklace and crown.

The anatomy of a peach include the seed and the pericarp. The seed is comprised of endosperm, embryo, and seed coat. The pericarp is comprised of the endocarp, mesocarp, and the exocarp.

anyone can.

Peaches are pretty much cosmopolitan in distribution and are grown in many countries across the globe.

They need a cold winter period (above of below freezing) for flower set and warm summers with adequate rain. This does restrict their range slightly, they grow better in areas with low humidity as elevated humidity can result in fungal infections.

Lacewing, ladybug and syrphid fly larvae eat peach and potato aphids. The beneficial insects in question feed upon both types of aphids, with their efforts being augmented by a parasitic fungus (Entomophthora aphidis) in terms of the green peach aphid.

Like peaches based on what it naturally looks like not based on colour but if it were it would be sand and light orange mixed.

Elberta peach trees are one of the latest to ripen. In Utah they are usually picked mid-September. This year (2012) because of the drought mine were ripe over Labor Day weekend.

It depends on the size of a box, whether you mean a bushel, a peck, or what. One source says they got 116 peaches in a bushel box. However, bushels are measured by weight rather than number, and a bushel of peaches is 50 pounds. A peck is a quarter bushel, so that could be around 29 peaches if you use the number from the source mentioned above. There are 2-3 peaches in a pound, depending on the size of the peaches, and there are roughly 50 pounds in a bushel.

As a side note, bushel sizes vary with the type of fruit. A bushel of apples is 48 pounds.

Also, if you mean the flat kind of wooden box with a plastic form to hold the peaches in a pattern in a single layer, the fruitstands in my area normally have 48 peaches to a box.

A nectarine has been selectively bred to have a slick skin with none of the fuzz of a peach. Other than that it's hard to tell the difference. Nectarines are a little more tart, but they taste very similar to a peach. You can use them just like peaches in baking or in making jams and preserves.

A lug is an agricultural unit, usually slightly less than a bushel.

The last lug of peaches I purchased contained 50 individual peaches.

Yes and no. The seed is technically edible although may contain high levels of hydrocyanic acid. Detection of this is largely by taste (bitter tasting seed). The seed should have the consistency of a squishy almond and a light pleasant taste. Some reports suggest that the seed may be high in B17 and aid in the treatment of cancer.

Yep... that's how many I had to accept! C'mon.

Because pineapple is a tropical fruit that grows better mostly in the warm weather country like Philippines, Vietnam, China and other tropical countries..

georigia

It's hard to tell because, in most games, she kissed him on the nose, and in some she kissed on the cheek, maybe she never kissed him on the lips, the reason is unknown, but I think she should kiss him on the lips in the next game, because they are together.

Well that is unknown.

But i say she only likes him as a friend.

Kaa will trick her into trusting in him, if she doesn't Kaa will grab her feet with his coils, turn her face toward her and hypnotize her and she will be under his control and Kaa will start playing with her, first he'll take his coils and wrap them around her, then he'll command Peach to drop her extra skins, (Clothing) because he wants to eat something that has nothing on it, in this case, Peach with no clothes on. (I'm not being Sexiest, I'm just saying this would happen if she did meet him). Kaa would then wrap around her, lift her up, and he would start eating her feet, then legs, then stomach, then breasts, then neck, then head and finally hair and she will be devoured. Then Mario comes in, beats Kaa up, swings him like he does to Bowser, Peach will be out of Kaa's stomach, Mario picked up Peach's clothes, while Peach covering herself up when she came out and saw Mario. Mario gaave Peach her clothes, covered his eyes, Peach put them back on and she kisses him. Kaa lands in Bowser's Keep, Bowser burns him to a crisp, cut his eyes out, and he and his 7 koopalings ate KAA for supper instead of him devouring a person.

Peach trees are grown from a peach pip (the seed) and the peach is the fruit of the tree.

The core of a peach is a pit.
