Excerpt from The Plum in Kansas, Vol. 2: With a Chapter on the Prune Definition IN the standard dictionary: The edible drupa caoue fruit of the Prunus domestica, and of several other species of Prunus; also, the tree itself, usually called plum tree. The Bullace, the Damson, and the numerous varieties of plum of our gardens, although growing into thornless trees, are believed to be varieties of the blackthorn, produced by long cultivation. Two or three hundred varieties of plums derived from the P. Domestica are described; among them the Green Gage, the Orleans, the Damson, the Purple Gage or Reine Claude Violette and the German Prune are some of the best known.
