PLUM-BELIEVABLETM CATEGORIES
THE PURPOSE OF
PLUM-BELIEVABLETM CATEGORIES
Plums are a confusing fruit. Is it a plum? A plumcot? a pluot? What will it taste like? Will it be red or yellow inside? Or somewhere in between? All of these questions are the reason Plum-Believable™ was created.
Each category is made up of several varieties, which are listed below. These varieties all have their own unique flavor, so you will notice a slight difference in taste throughout the year, but our hope is that you find each and every one as delicious as the last.
