| Beautiful white blossoms of Japanese plum on a blue sky background in Tokyo. Other common names of Prunus mume are Chinese plum and Japanese apricot. In Japan, its fruits are used for making umeboshi, that is dried and pickled plums, while its blossoms are often mentioned in poetry as a symbol of spring: in haiku and renga they correspond to a kigo or season word for early spring. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
