The peach (Prunus persica) is a deciduous tree first domesticated and cultivated in the Zhejiang province of Eastern China.
It bears edible juicy fruits with various characteristics, most called peaches and others (the glossy-skinned, non-fuzzy varieties), nectarines.

The specific name persica refers to its widespread cultivation in Persia (modern-day Iran),
from where it was transplanted to Europe. It belongs to the genus Prunus, which includes the cherry,
apricot, almond, and plum, in the rose family. The peach is classified with the almond in the subgenus Amygdalus,
distinguished from the other subgenera by the corrugated seed shell (endocarp).
Due to their close relatedness, the kernel of a peach stone tastes remarkably similar to an almond,
and peach stones are often used to make a cheap version of marzipan, known as persipan.
