How to Grow an Apple
The apple is one of the most popular fruit trees in the world. The first apple trees grew in Kazakhstan, in central Asia. Travelers spread the seeds, and now apple trees grow on every continent except Antarctica. Every year, apple orchards in the U.S. produce around 5 million tons of apples. An apple tree may grow to be 40 feet (12 m) high and live for over 100 years. But it all begins with one small flower.
