I'm now grown in many different parts of the world, including Turkey, Iran, and California, USA. For 4,000 years, I've been cultivated (farmed). I am a summer fruit that needs plenty of warmth and sunshine to grow and ripen. I am grown on a tree and can be found in a variety of colors, from yellow to orange to red.  After I'm pickedAfter I'm picked, I am usually allowed to ripen for a few days at room temperature. When I am ripe, my flesh will be soft and juicy, and my skin will be easy to peel off.
