I want a parent plant for plums. The genus Prunus contains many trees other than plums, though, so I need to narrow down these species.
Prunus domestica is the main plum species.
I also see some plums in our database under two other species, such as:
Mirabelle Plum (Prunus domestica subsp. insititia 'Nancy')
Plum (Prunus cerasifera Gypsy®)
And we have some cultivars that are simply listed with just the genus, like:
Plum (Prunus BlackIce®)
Are the insititia and cerasifera species valid? Should I make the parent plant cover all 3 of these species? And the ones that are on the genus level only, should we endeavor to find the right species for them and edit them?
