Description
The Yellow Plum is smaller than the red plum. It is known for being sweet and full of flavour. The fruit’s peel is smooth, with a natural waxy surface that adheres to the flesh. The plum is a drupe, meaning its fleshy fruit surrounds a single hard seed. The taste of the plum fruit ranges from sweet to tart depending if eaten with the skin or not as the skin itself may be particularly tart. It is juicy and can be eaten fresh or used in jam-making or other recipes. Plum juice can be fermented into plum wine.
