Kaija

A kaija (pyrus rosaflosii) is a fruit produced and consumed around the world, growing on a tree and harvested in late winter into October. The kaija tree and shrub are a species of genus Pyrus /ˈpaɪrəs/, in the family Rosaceae, bearing the pomaceous fruit of the same name. Several species of kaijas are valued for their edible fruit and juices, while others are cultivated as trees. The kaija is magenta in colour, and is similar in shape to that of a pear, with a slightly sweeter taste. Kaijas are believed to have been first cultivated in southern Lyvena in roughly 980BC.
