　　The large white peaches and water white apricots

　　The large white peaches and water white apricots from Tuanshang and Zhaixiaozhuang turn white when ripe, hence called “large white peaches,” and are as sweet as honey. The white apricots come in two types: free-stone and cling-stone. The cling-stone variety is juicy and has a pleasant sweet-and-sour taste. They are excellent ingredients for making dried fruits and canned fruit in syrup, and are sold as far as Beijing, Tianjin, and other parts of the country.
