This early 19th-century plum, the Monsieur Hâtif, is distinguished by its narrow leaves and characteristic branches, ripening two weeks before its ordinary cousins.
Its oval fruits boast a bluish-red skin, covered with a delicate azure bloom, enclosing firm yet melting yellowish-green flesh with sweet and fragrant flavors.
This scientific plate combines the precision of botanical drawing with a rare artistic sensibility, typical of the naturalist masterpieces from Poiteau and Turpin's Traité des Arbres Fruitiers.
