Cee is asking for the colour plum this month. Why not look at the name giver, the fruit?
And the bloom has the right colour as well:

This statue of an apple picker stands in front of the old town hall of Trebur, a town near the River Rhine in Hesse.

Cavaillon melons
For the life of me I will never understand that we can buy cantaloupe melons, Galia melons, Charentais melons and so on in the local supermarkets but Cavaillon melons are nowhere to be had. Cavaillon is twinned with our town, it shouldn’t be a problem. Also, a mere 100km away from us, just over the border in France, they are sold when in season, it shouldn’t be a problem. And they are simply the best melons ever!
In late spring there are untold roadside stands selling strawberry and asparagus in our area. The places may not be the most inviting – chosen for convenient access and parking rather than beautiful surroundings – but the goods usually are.
I prefer this advert placement for a day of fruit and vegetables (from another year, I think this year’s will be cancelled).

An Apple from Yesterday
They used to sell fruit from the farm here. Unfortunately, not anymore.
Mainly apples were sold.
Okay, a few naartjies (as we call them in South Africa) are hiding beneath the apples.
