| | Plum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Plum is used as a food plant by the larvae of some Lepidoptera including November Moth, Willow Beauty and Short-cloaked Moth. | | | When it flowers in the early spring, a plum tree will be covered in blossom, and in a good year approximately 50% of the flowers will be pollinated and become plums. | | | If the weather is too dry the plums will not develop past a certain stage, but will fall from the tree while still tiny green buds, and if it is unseasonably wet or if the plums are not harvested as soon as they are ripe, the fruit may develop a fungal condition called brown rot. |

| | Dried plums, or prunes, are made from the varieties that are richest in sugar and solids. | | | About 12 plum species are cultivated throughout temperate regions for their fruit and as flowering ornamentals. | | | The fruit is more pointed at the apex than that of the common European plum, and its varieties are yellow or light red but never purplish-blue. |

| | The beach plum is a wild relative of the cultivated plum. | | | Catherine plum is the fruit used for producing the famous pruneaux de Tours, which is also called 'pruneaux fleuris' because of a whitish bloom caused by crystallization of sugar. | | | Plums have only moderate amounts of soluble gums and pectins in the flesh, as well as small amounts of cellulose and the noncarbohydrate food fiber lignin in the skin. |

| | Plum Tree |
| | As has been already suggested, the Plum properly so-called may in all probability be the artificial product of cultivation rather than a variety existing anywhere in a truly wild state, and was probably introduced by the Romans, by whom it was undoubtedly cultivated on a large scale. | | | Lastly, many of the trees of the group freely exude a very insoluble gum, especially where their bark is injured; and the foliage and kernels of the entire sub-order contain hydrocyanic, commonly known as prussic, acid. | | | The very tough and hard wood of the Blackthorn is never of sufficient girth to rank as timber, but it is proverbial, especially in Ireland, as the material for cudgels, and from its suitable size, strength, and abundance, no wood is better adapted for a farmer's walking-stick. |

| | The adult plum curculio is a small, hard-bodied, brownish-black snout beetle mottled with white and orange areas. | | | In feeding on apples, the beetle makes a small hole in the skin of the fruit and then devours all the flesh of the fruit it can reach with its snout. | | | When the summer brood of adults appears, feeding cavities again can be found on the fruits. |

| | One type of plum he selected for his breeding experiments was the cherry plum, a hybrid whose lineage includes wild plum species adapted to northern climes. | | | Eventually plum trees could be grown commercially in several areas of the state, Smith says, especially in more temperate places such as the Door County peninsula where cherries are now grown, or on high bluffs, less prone to frost, where farmers currently plant apple trees. | | | "Commercial plum production is almost non-existent in the state right now primarily because most of your higher quality plums aren't winter hardy, bloom too early in the spring, and require long growing seasons," says Smith. |
