Japanese Variety
With a larger than average size and a rounded stem end tapering to a soft point, it does indeed resemble a large heart. It has a mottled pistachio and purple skin, deepening to burgundy red with a powdery matte finish. When ripe, it feels heavy in the hand, full of sweet juice and firm but delicate flesh, flushed with deep ruby red color throughout. The Elephant Heart plum is floral and sweet with just a hint of acid, and should be consumed within a few days of purchase as it has ashort shelf life when ripe em>.
