Writing About Plum Trees
A special section or post that will be talking about Plum… or more specific, Plum trees.
What are Plum trees?
A plum tree is a stone fruit tree! Yes, that’s what I read at Wikipedia… Here’s what it says..
A plum or gage is a stone fruit tree in the genus Prunus, subgenus Prunus. The subgenus is distinguished from other subgenera (peaches, cherries, bird cherries, etc) in the shoots having a terminal bud and the side buds solitary (not clustered), the flowers being grouped 1-5 together on short stems, and the fruit having a groove running down one side, and a smooth stone.

See the red one? Those are the one we were eating in Burnaby while we were staying there! I though those were little apples, but apparently those were plum fruits!
