Prunus armeniaca is the most commonly cultivated apricot species. The native range is somewhat uncertain due to its extensive prehistoric cultivation. Genetic studies indicate Central Asia is the center of origin.[4][5] It is extensively cultivated in many countries and has escaped into the wild in many places.[6][7][8]
The specific epithet armeniaca refers to the country of Armenia in Western Asia.[9]
