The name Prugna a cuore is used to denote a series of local varieties morphologically related to the species Prunus salicina. The fruits are distinguished by smooth skin with a waxy bloom, yellow-red coloration, and the presence of pronounced lenticels.
The fruit flesh is yellow and juicy, acquiring a melting consistency upon full maturity. The stone is of medium size and ellipsoidal shape.
This variety is a product of folk selection and is traditional for the Apulia region. Given that the name is descriptive in nature, the characteristics of trees under this name may vary significantly.
