Behmi grows in an area that is difficult and far from where I live. Moreover, it is not a commercial fruit at all. But still I can try to help in getting few seeds or budsticks if anyone is interested in taking up breeding project on this fruit. Some botanists have assigned behmi a botanical name Pruus mira.

Dr. Parmar, thank you very much for your information. From your description of behmi as a peach-like fruit with an edible, almond-like kernel, I think many American gardeners would be interested in growing it as a novelty at least. I wonder if any nurseries might be willing to import it. It also seems that there would be great potential to cross it with better-tasting peaches to get an even better dual-purpose crop.

Melissa
