The Virginal Plum is a rare, ancient variety, recognizable by its yellowish-green skin, speckled with whitish dots and often marked with purple hues.
Poiteau reveals the secret of this plum: it must be eaten at the precise moment when its skin still retains its typical green, as it is at this stage that its firm flesh reveals its most exquisite fragrance.
This scientific illustration accurately captures the botanical characteristics of the plum tree — dense foliage, vigorous branches, and delicate flowers — in the tradition of the great plates of the Traité des Arbres Fruitiers.
