Why plum blossom name?

The plum blossom gets its name from the plum tree (Prunus mume), which produces these delicate flowers. In many cultures, especially in East Asia, plum blossoms symbolize resilience and hope, as they bloom in late winter or early spring before most other flowers. Their beauty and early arrival signify the promise of renewal and the coming of warmer seasons. The name reflects both the botanical origin and the cultural significance of the flower.
