The Myrobalan Plum, scientifically known as Prunus cerasifera, is a species of plum tree native to Southeast Europe and Western Asia. It is widely cultivated for its attractive flowers, fruits, and as an ornamental plant.

The tree can grow to be about 15-30 feet tall and wide, depending on the variety and growing conditions. The leaves of Prunus cerasifera are simple, ovate to elliptical, with a finely serrated margin. They are typically a shiny green, though some cultivars have purple or red foliage. The tree is known for its early spring bloom, often before the leaves fully emerge. The flowers are small, with five petals, and range in color from white to pink. They are attractive to bees and other pollinators.

The fruit of the Myrobalan Plum is a small drupe, similar in appearance to a cherry but with a plum flavor. The skin can be yellow to red, and the flesh is usually yellow and juicy. The fruit is edible and can be used in jams, jellies, and other culinary applications.

Prunus cerasifera prefers well-drained soil but is quite adaptable to various soil types, including clay, loam, and sand.  Full sun is ideal for the best growth and fruit production, though the tree can tolerate partial shade. Regular watering is important, especially for young trees. Once established, the tree is relatively drought-tolerant. Pruning is recommended to maintain shape, remove any dead or diseased wood, and encourage fruiting.

Several cultivars of Prunus cerasifera are popular in horticulture. The Cherry plum is a little-known plum species (at least in this country) with delicious edible fruit that is just starting to catch on here in the US. As with other members of the Prunus genus, there's a great deal of diversity to this species. The fruit is edible and can be used in a variety of culinary applications, though it is not as commonly consumed as other plum species. They can be found in a range of colors, sizes, and flavors. Sweet-when-ripe types are eaten fresh (or made into jams, etc), while sour-when-ripe types are used for sauces, soups, pickles, etc.

With its beautiful spring blossoms and attractive foliage, Prunus cerasifera is widely used in landscaping and garden design. The flowers provide an early source of nectar for pollinators, while the fruit can attract birds and other wildlife. Overall, Prunus cerasifera is a versatile tree that can add beauty and interest to landscapes, along with providing ecological benefits and potential culinary uses.

GROWING TIPS: The Experimental Farm Network recommends the following for best results for starting your Myrobalan Plum seeds. Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours then warm-moist stratify for 30-60, days followed by 120 days of cold-moist stratification in the fridge. Keep at room temperature after treatment to sprout. We recommend using a good potting mix in gallon ziplock bags, so you can keep an eye on them but also protect them from being eaten by rodents. Nursing the young trees in a pot for the first couple years is wise, before planting out in a full-sun location and protecting the tree from predation by deer, rabbits, and other critters.

Lynda Barry is Awesome
Format: Kindle
This book is fantastic if you want to make comics by yourself or with a classroom. Barry packs in loads of experience teaching and making art. Her style of drawing is simple and straight forward. She uses a great method that empowers the reader to make art and share it. I want to be half the teacher Barry is.

This! Book! Rocks!
Format: Paperback
If you enjoy laughing, having fun with your friends and family, and doing cool stuff, you will love Lynda Barry's Making Comics. This is a thoughtful and complete recap of her live class at the University of Wisconsin, includes much of her substantial thought and philosophy on the role of image making in human evolution, and is full of her (and her students') amazing artwork; but it's also full of excessively FUN drawing exercises that are wonderful for sucky drawers as well as professional artists. We dig this book so bad!!! Best gift I've given myself in a million years!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe I had a little bit forgotten how much I! Love! Lynda! Barry!!!!! So if you wish you could go move to Wisconsin and take her class like I do, instead just save the planet the extra greenhouse gases and get this book instead and do the class at your kitchen table with your friends!!! Maybe also order it from your local groovy independent bookstore so you can stick it to the man!!!

Highly comical
Format: Paperback
This book is simply amazing. I have stopped, wondering about comics and begun mastering them. The author is always amazing. I’ve read most of her work and I can hardly highly recommend them. especially her novel Cruddy it was the best!
