Place the treeвЂ™s root ball in the hole and cover with soil. Common soil amendments for fruit trees in Louisiana include peat moss, compost, well-rotted manure and lime to raise the pH of soil.Дig a planting hole in the ground that is twice as wide but no deeper than the root ball of the tree.Prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of 12 inches with a rototiller.Purchase two trees for cultivators that are not self-fruitful so that the trees will cross-pollinate. If you tree cultivator is self-fruitful, you will only need to purchase one tree. The majority of Louisiana is in zone 8, but the southern coast of Louisiana falls inside of USDA zone 9.

At Christmas markets in Germany, for example the Christkindlesmarkt in Nuremberg, a zwetschgenmГ¤nnla ('little zwetschge man') or zwetschgenweibla ('little zwetschge woman'), with a walnut head, a body of dried figs, and limbs of dried zwetschgen, is a popular treat. SzilvГЎsgombГіc and zwetschkenknГ¶del are potato dumplings with a zwetschgen filling in Hungary and Austria respectively, served as a sweet main course or as a dessert. Carlsbad plums are a candied zwetschgen confection named after Carlsbad (now Karlovy Vary) in the Czech Republic. Fermented zwetschgen are distilled to make eaux de vie: zwetschgenwasser or zwetsch (in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland), zwetschgeler (in South Tyrol, Italy), and quetsch (in Alsace, France). They are the sole ingredient in the traditional powidl jam of Austria and the Czech Republic, and the main ingredient in schmootsch, a similar but spiced jam from Silesia. Prune plums hold their form well at oven temperatures and are much used in baking, for example in tarts such as quetschentaart and zwetschgenkuchen. The fruit, which ripens in August and September in the Northern Hemisphere, is a popular seasonal table fruit. The red-brown wood is used in fine cabinetry. It is less round than other plums, its ends are more pointed and the groove is less pronounced. The blossom appears in April and May in the Northern Hemisphere, before or with foliation, and is white, greenish-white, or yellowish-green on two or three downy pedicels. The leaf is simple, 4вЂ“10В cm long, alternate, petiolate, crenulate, and elliptic. It grows to 6вЂ“10 m in height older trees have spreading branches. The prune plum tree is often found in streuobstwiesen. daveigne (Jura), dav(d)gna ( Franche-ComtГ©). These names, like damson, are thought ultimately to derive from postulated Vulgar Latin * davascena, altered from damascena, meaning 'of Damascus', reflexes of which appear mainly in Franco-ProvenГ§al, e.g.

Variants of the word include: Quetsch(e) ( Lorraine, Alsace, Luxembourg, and regionally in Germany) Kwetsen ( Dutch), Zwetschke (regionally in Austria) and Zwetsche (regionally in Germany).

The fruit is known under various regional names, including 'blue plum', 'damask plum', 'sugar plum', and 'German prune' in English-speaking countries, and 'zwetschge' in German-speaking ones.
