When people from other parts of the world began traveling in Chaina,they dicovered this unusual-looking fruit. In 1904, a woman from New Zealand,Isabel Fraser, travaled to China. There, she ate a monkey peach. She liked ist taste, so she took some seeds back with her to New Zealand. She gave the seeds to Thomas Allison. Thomas and his brother, Alexander, owned an orchard. Alexander Allison planted Fraser's seeds and harvested the first fruit in 1910.
