CIDE DICTIONARY
prunus, n. [L., a plum tree.].
A genus of trees with perigynous rosaceous flowers, and a single two-ovuled carpel which usually becomes a drupe in ripening. [1913 Webster]
" Originally, this genus was limited to the plums, then, by Linnæus, was made to include the cherries and the apricot. Later botanists separated these into several genera, as Prunus , Cerasus , and Armeniaca , but now, by Bentham and Hooker, the plums, cherries, cherry laurels, peach, almond, and nectarine are all placed in Prunus ."
[1913 Webster]
