The Davidson Plum is a slender medium-sized rainforest tree that produces large plum-shaped fruits which are purple on the outside and scarlet on the inside. They are deliciously sour in flavour and work well in both sweet and savoury dishes, as well as jam. They contain lots of nutrients, such as lutein which is important for eye health. Another benefit of the fruit is its intense colouring which can act as a natural food colour or be used as a dye.
There are three species of Davidson plum, including Jerseyana, Pruriens, and Johnsonii.
From November to February, these trees blossom with small pink flowers that later turn into fruit and can grow in clusters along the stem.
