豊後(ぶんご)

'Bungo' is typically grown for fruit,  but will produce enjoyable flowers, and can also be used for bonsai.  It produces medium-size fruit (~22grams) with relatively small seeds.  Like 'Inazumi' and 'Jumbo Takada', 'Bungo' is considered more cold hardy than other Ume cultivars

Primary uses
Umeshu

Pollination
It can self-pollinate, but will benefit from the presence of another variety.  It does produce a large amount of pollen and can serve as a good pollinator for other varieties as well.
