果 means fruit; 实 means solid, real, or substantial. Together 果实 names the actual ripened fruit of a plant, and by extension the concrete gains or rewards of effort.
果 — fruit shape 田-like top + tree 木
果 is a pictograph: early forms show a tree (木) with round fruit hanging on its branches, later stylized into the 田-like top. Its original meaning was 'fruit', which extended to 'result, outcome' — the fruit of an action — and to 'resolute, decisive'.
