Prunus dulcis

General characteristics
  • Common name: Almond tree.
  • Family: Rosaceae.
  • Location: Exterior.
  • Light: Directly from the sun.
  • Temperature: Temperate climate, although it can withstand low temperatures.
  • Irrigation: Moderate.

A tree native to Eastern Europe, Western Asia and North Africa, it is, however, widely cultivated in our country, as it has adapted perfectly to the Mediterranean climate and our soils. Belonging to the rosaceae family, the almond tree can reach up to 10 meters in height. Although it usually grows between 5 and 8 meters. 

With green and smooth bark in its youth, but cracked and dark in adulthood, it has elongated, narrow and pointed (lanceolate) deciduous leaves of an intense green, whose emergence is later than that of the flower. The reason is that the almond tree is a very early flowering tree; in fact, its flowers usually come out with the first rays of sunlight at the end of winter, usually between the end of January and February, although it varies each year depending on the climate. 

Alone or in pairs, almond blossoms are truly beautiful. In fact, seeing almond blossoms in bloom has become one of the natural experiences that attracts the most travelers in late winter and spring. With five petals in shades of white or pink, these marvelous blossoms will nine months later bear their prized fruit, almonds, and their seeds.
