The poem "Wumei"

"Black? Mei "

Ming (Wang Mian)

The first tree in my Xiyan Lake is light ink. Don't boast about the good color, just let the air be full of dried Kun.

Mume has the habit of creeping upward, and there are short, curved but sharp thorns on the arched stems. When the bent and drooping branches touch the ground, the nodes at the top of the branches will grow roots. Because of this characteristic and the rapid growth of black plum, black plum growing in woodland, shrub and hillside can spread outward and occupy a large area of land in a short time. Black plum can tolerate barren soil and is a pioneer plant in wasteland and construction sites. Leaves are palm-shaped, with three to five leaflets and white or pink flowers. The flowering period is from May to August every year, and the fruit is black or deep purple when it matures.
