Abstract: The growing points of the buds of mume (Prunus mume) varieties of various maturity times were observed under a scanning electron microscope to study the differentiation periods of their flower buds. The clear and intact pictures show that the flower buds of mume growing in Liannan county,Guangdong province begin to differentiate in the second and last ten days of July. Among them the mature period of the early variety (white powder mume) is comparatively short.It takes 3 months for flower buds to differentiate. The differentiation completes in the second and last ten days of October.,The mature periods of the medium and late varieties such as the large mume with tender twigs and May mume are longer.The differentiation continues until the second and last ten days of Deceniber,lasting 5 months.

Key words: Prunus mume variety of various mature periods, Flower bud differenti-ation, Electron microscope scanning
