Narrative

Type = Plum. Established by Trifonov that Damson is very resistant to PPV, so it may serve as suitable basic breeding material to produce resistant plum varieties by cross-breeding with Prunus domestica cultivars. Per The Plums of New York (see citation): "Tree productive, vigorous, and hardy. Fruits small and astringent, but excellent for preserves. High adaptability to different soils and climates. Cultivar originated in Damascus (hence the cultivar name), then brought into Italy at least a century before the Christian era."
