What really determines the type you should choose is how you want to use them. Most are good for snacking. Others are great for desserts, canning, dried fruits, making jam, jelly, and preserves, and salads.

Damson plums are one of the most popular old varieties in America. But it's hard to find them in the grocery stores so people have started growing their own. The fruits are deep bluish-purple in color with very tasy amber flesh that has a spicy, tart flavor. Damson plums are great for fresh eating, cooking, jam, or making wine.
