Red leaf plum is purple leaf plum. Rosaceae plum is a small deciduous tree with a height of up to 8 meters. It is native to southwest Asia and is widely cultivated in North China and its south. Ye perennial purplish red, famous foliage tree species, solitary plant group planting is suitable, can set off the background. In particular, the purple shiny leaves, in the green leaves, like undefeated flowers, form a beautiful landscape in the green mountains and green waters.

Red-leaf plum is a positive tree, and its leaves are not bright in shade. Like warm, humid climate, not cold-resistant. The area north of the Yellow River in China can survive the winter in the open field only if it is planted in the leeward and sunny place. Potted plants should spend the winter in the sunny place of 1-5 ℃. It is not strict with the soil, but it grows well in the neutral and acidic soil which is rich, deep and well drained. It is more moisture-resistant than other drupes and adapts to clayey soil. Usually use the grafting method to propagate, but also press the strip, the cuttage takes root slowly, the survival rate is low. The time of grafting is from late March to early April in spring, using splitting method. The age of rootstock should be 1-2 years old. The type of rootstock selected has different effects on the scion. Mountain peach and apricot are used as rootstocks in the north. Due to the drought in spring in the north, the soil must be cultivated after that, and the survival rate is very high. Mountain peach as the rootstock after the new branches purplish green, old leaves are mostly green-purple, and have a piece of purple spots, the growth is particularly exuberant, but afraid of waterlogging. Mountain apricot is grafted as rootstock with bright red leaves, strong waterlogging tolerance and cold tolerance, but its growth is not as strong as that of mountain peach as rootstock. Peaches, apricots, plums and plums are generally used as rootstocks in East China. Hairy peach began to move in the shade in Shanghai on February 20, so it is better to be grafted in the first and middle of March; plum as rootstock is more resistant to waterlogging; apricot and plum are used as rootstocks with long life and good grafting. After the grafting survived, it can be moved out of the nursery and planted in 2012, and can be transplanted in both spring and autumn, but spring is the best. When planting in spring, 10 kilograms of rotten compost was applied to each hole. Before the shade moves to the flowering stage, it can be watered for 2-3 times, the rainy season should be drained, and the soil can be loosened and weeded for 3 or 4 times during the growth period. During the management period, special attention should be paid to cutting off the sprouting tillers of rootstocks, pruning the long branches properly, and removing the thin and weak branches that are too dense to make them into a round and beautiful crown.
