Good morning Jeanne77, thank you for your contribution. Plums are round, very juicy and have a smaller stone, generally very attached to the flesh. Plums are oval, smaller, firmer and have a stone that can be removed easily after halving the fruit. The generic term for both fruits is "plum." This is also well understood from the botanical name: Prunus domestica. All types of plums and plums are therefore part of the category "plums": Sincerely, Alex

I think it's right to call plums plums - as long as they really are plums. In contrast to the heart-shaped fruit shown in the second picture, these are actually plums and not damsons!

That's what I'm saying: plums are plums, plums are plums - if you see the answer Migros gave me. But according to them (depending on who answers) it's all the same, namely plums.

Botanically, plums, damsons, mirabelle plums and raisin plums are subspecies of the cultivated plum (Prunus domestica).
Consequently, every plum is a plum, but not every plum is a damson.
This description corresponds to that of Alex (Migipedia).

Sure. But I don't understand what was originally wrong with the advertising. If it said "Try our heart-shaped plums for free", then that was absolutely correct, because heart-shaped plums are plums.

How come now that there is an action you distinguish plums from prunes?
