Apples are part of the much larger Rosacea family and cousin to the Rose.
It is an open pollinating plant that relies heavily on bees for pollination. It is one of the earliest trees that was cultivated with references dating back to pre Roman times. Seeds have been found in Anatolia which carbon date to 6500 BC and a fossilised apple seed from the Neolithic period found in England.
Intoxicating by their very nature, apple blossoms are symbolic of heady love and both Apple blossoms and trees were honoured by the ancient Celts as a symbol of love, and they would decorate their bed-chambers with these blossoms to entice amorous nights. In Scandinavian legends, the North-European gods and goddesses were fed an apple every evening by Iduna: She was the keeper of the magic apples of immortality, which the gods must eat to preserve their youth.
