Kashi has always enjoyed the reputation of being
a "Land of Fruits and Melons", with Boshikelamu
ranking first in the area. Among the great variety
of fruits in Boshikelamu, the apricot alone has more
than twenty strains, and grape, apple and pear have
nearly twenty strains each. Also there are many strains
of cherry, plum, peach, quince, date and so on.
Each of the fruits has early, middle and late ripening
varieties. In May, the white, sweet and tasty mulberries
ripen and, from then on, apricot, cherry, fig, sweet-kernel
peach, jasper peach, flat peach, pear, apple, grape,
pomegranate and pistachio and badam, the high-valued
dry nut fruits in China, ripen one after another.
The fruit harvest does not end until the beginning
of November.
