The Meiyuan Ink Plum Blossom stands out with its deep purple, ink-like petals that resemble traditional East Asian brush painting, giving the plant a refined and mysterious aesthetic. As a unique variety of plum blossom, it belongs to the Japanese apricot species and is widely appreciated as an ornamental ume tree known for its resilience and elegance.

Highly cold-hardy and drought-tolerant, this variety grows vigorously and is easy for both beginners and experienced gardeners to cultivate. It performs well in pots or in the ground, adapting quickly to different environments.

The ink plum blossom provides year-round beauty. In early spring, its buds resemble delicate ink dots; in full bloom, the flowers cluster densely with a light, elegant fragrance.

Symbolizing purity, resilience, and the courage to bloom through winter, the ink plum blossom carries deep cultural meaning. It is perfect for enhancing gardens, courtyards, tea rooms, or indoor spaces, and also makes a meaningful gift for special occasions.
