Almonds

The almond tree, also known as Prunus dulcis, is a particularly beautiful and productive tree that is perfect for any garden or driveway. This impressive tree grows to about five metres tall and has a rich, bright green foliage. During spring, these trees bloom beautifully with white or pink blossoms, heralding the start of fruiting.

The fruits of the almond tree are nuts, which can be found in a hard shell that opens only when the almonds are fully ripe. Rich in fats, proteins, minerals and vitamins, these nuts can be used in a variety of dishes, from sweets to salads and pastries.
