What the planter likes about it
Plum is one of the most appetizing fruits in the area, in addition, the climate allows its production, and with an irrigation system, it can be harvested for five months or more. It is used for food or for the preparation of drinks and traditional sweets. It is bought and sold in local markets. Older people remember that this fruit has always existed, so it has become an almost native fruit that we want to continue producing in the area. The introduction of new trees will allow us to maintain production since those that exist are already very old and not very productive. The flowers provide a source of early nectar for bees and other pollinators. The fruits are also a food source for various species of birds and mammals.
Species particularities
Prunus domestica, commonly known as the Plum, is native to Southern Europe and Western Asia but has been widely cultivated and naturalized in other parts of the world. The fruit of Prunus domestica is edible and can be eaten fresh or used in cooking and baking. It is also commonly dried to create prunes. The tree produces small, white flowers in the early spring, very attractive to pollinators.
