The epicarp hairs and mesocarp fibers arecharacteristic. The latter occur in preservesmade with the removal of skin and pits. Fordistinctions of the seed from the almond, seeP- 334-. Fig. 255a.

The European species includes red, blue, andyellow-green varieties, didering greatly in size and excellence. None ofthe Japanese varieties is blue or purple. Plums never have a hairy epicarp, thus ditTering fre)m the peach andapricot. The stone is smaller than that of the apricot and more elon-gated, but otherwise is similar both in gross and minute structure. PLUM. CHERRY. 341
