About Plum blossoms
Wikipedia Article About Plum blossoms on Wikipedia

Ume (梅) is the Japanese name for a species of Asian plum (Prunus mume, Rosaceae). The tree originates from China (where it is called méi (梅)), but has also grown in Japan and Korea (where it is called maesil 매실) since ancient times. The tree is cultivated for its fruits and flowers. Although normally called a plum, it is actually more closely related to the apricot. Another species commonly referred to as the "Japanese plum" is the sumomo.

In Japan, cultivars of ume are classified into "wild plum" types, "crimson flowered" types, and bungo type. Some of the best fruit comes from the bungo trees which developed from ume and apricot hybrids. The crimson flowered trees are grown mainly for decoration. Wild plum trees are used as grafting stock.
