Jiangmei specimen

Jiang Mei (Prunus mume 'Jiang Mei') is a wild plum blossom, also known as wild plum. In ancient times, it was all wild plum and often grew in desolate and cold places by mountain streams and rivers. Later, it was cultivated in transplant gardens. The flowering period of Jiangmei varies from early to late, but there are relatively more early flowering varieties. Some varieties of Jiangmei have smaller petals and longer filaments, which can form a beautiful long haired flower shape. Due to the fact that Jiangmei is derived from the differentiation of fruit plum, many varieties of Jiangmei still retain the habit of fruiting, becoming a plum with both ornamental and edible value.
