Abstract
This paper presents the results of the analysis of Croatian and Russian idioms withphytonymic components naming different types of fruit and the lexemes voće and плодas phraseological components. During the analysis an attempt is made to investigatethe way in which fruit as a phraseological component is conceptualized in idioms andthe way in which it influences the formation of phraseological meaning with regard tothe possibility of its dual conceptualization: as a plant and as a food source. The con-trastive approach aims to determine the similarities and differences in the way fruitas a phraseological component motivates the phraseological meaning in the national-culturally specific phraseological picture of the world characteristic of the two relatedSlavic languages. Croatian and Russian idioms with the component jabuka/яблоко areanalyzed in more detail since it represents the phraseologically most productive phyto-nymic component referring to fruit in both analyzed languages.
