Fortune plum has a sweet, fragrant, and juicy flavor with a slightly tangy taste and a firm, yellow-orange flesh. The taste can range from sweet to slightly crunchy and sour depending on ripeness, becoming more sugary and soft as it ripens. It is well-suited for eating fresh, as well as for cooking and making desserts. Flavor profile
Stanley plums have a rich, sweet flavor that is ideal for fresh eating, canning, and drying. Their flesh is golden-yellow to greenish-yellow, juicy, and can be slightly tart, with a tender, fine-grained texture that becomes jammy when cooked.
Methley plums have a sweet, mild, and juicy flavor with a hint of tartness, particularly on the skin. They are known for being very juicy and are excellent for eating fresh or for making jelly, though their flesh is clingstone, meaning the pit is attached to the fruit.
