The wild plum is similar to the garden plum . Its different types differ in shape, color and taste (you are yellow, green and red). This fruit is used in the preparation of various dishes. It is extremely rich in biologically active substances carotene, anthocin, pectin; and the content of vitamin C is not less than in rose hips.
