"The Plums of New York" by U. P. Hedrick is a horticultural monograph written in the early 20th century. The text serves as a comprehensive study of cultivated plums, detailing their historical context, botanical classification, and various cultivars. It presents insights intended for both professional horticulturists and amateur growers, aiming to enhance the understanding and appreciation of this diverse group of fruits. At the start of the work, Hedrick outlines the purpose of the text, which is to compile existing knowledge about cultivated plums while acknowledging that the information is relevant to a broader audience beyond just New York. The opening portions introduce the genus Prunus, to which plums belong, and discuss the significant variability within this group, emphasizing the interactions between various species and their hybrids. The narrative sets the groundwork for understanding the wide range of plum varieties, their adaptability to different environments, and the complexities of their nomenclature and classification, aiming to equip readers with essential knowledge for successful cultivation and breeding endeavors.
