An apple tree in Germany. Many apples grow readily from seeds. However, apples must be propagated asexually to obtain cuttings with the characteristics of the parent. This is because seedling apples are "extreme heterozygotes". Rather than resembling their parents, seedlings are all different from each other and from their parents. [42]
The tree is winter-hardy and drought-resistant, growing 5–8 m (16–26 ft) tall in the wild (<5 m under cultivation), with a globular crown and very dark purplish-brown bark. [citation needed] New shoots are dark purple, and leaves range from purplish when new to dark green when mature. In the spring it puts out intensely magenta-rose flowers.
Apple tree size classes number from one to ten in increasing height and breadth. [2] A "1" is a dwarf which can be productive and as short as 3 feet (0.91 m) with proper pruning. A "10" is the standard sized tree with no dwarfing and will grow to 20 feet (6.1 m) tall and wide or more, dependent upon the variety chosen.
We've received another semi-official sneak peek of a new tree coming to FarmVille this week, as some users are starting to receive Crab Apple Trees from their Mystery Seedlings. The Crab Apple ...
Annona glabra is a tropical fruit tree in the family Annonaceae, in the same genus as the soursop and cherimoya.Common names include pond apple, alligator apple (so called because American alligators often eat the fruit), swamp apple, corkwood, bobwood, and monkey apple. [2]
The wild apple is a deciduous small to medium-sized tree, but can also grow into a multi-stemmed bush. It can live 80–100 years and grow up to 14 metres (46 feet) tall with trunk diameters of usually 23–45 centimetres (9– 17 + 1 ⁄ 2 inches), although diameters exceeding 90 cm (35 in) have been recorded.

Anna was bred by Abba Stein at the Ein Shemer kibbutz in Israel, in order to achieve a Golden Delicious-like apple, that can be cultivated in nearly tropical areas.A regular apple needs between 500 – 1000 hours of chilling [2] (aka chill units [3]) in order to get in blossom, but Anna flourishes even with less than 300 hours, so it can be grown in warm climates.

In video games using procedural world generation, the map seed is a (relatively) short number or text string which is used to procedurally create the game world ("map"). "). This means that while the seed-unique generated map may be many megabytes in size (often generated incrementally and virtually unlimited in potential size), it is possible to reset to the unmodified map, or the unmodified ...
