* ''lūrbha'' — a cherry-like fruit, whose tree has spiny leaves much like holly and grows in most of the Plain and of the Near East. The fruit colour ranges from pale yellow when unripe to bright orange with sporadic red hues when ripe at its best stage. The fruits are quite small (averaging 3-4 cm length when fully ripe), with the stone being about one third of it, and have a distinctive rich flavour, somewhat reminescent of apricots; they are, however, quite acid and tongue-numbing when eaten unripe. It is a common flavour for sweets and liqueurs. | * ''lūrbha'' — a cherry-like fruit, whose tree has spiny leaves much like holly and grows in most of the Plain and of the Near East.
