I don't know the bloke behind Plum Blossom but they came from Eden Prairie, Minnesota, USA. To my knowledge there were only two kits, a Lloyd CV and an FE2b. The date on the FE2b is 1995. I have searched the WWI archives and according to Barry at Rosemont, Plum Blossoms ceased shortly after the FE2B 
was released. Both sold for $29.95 originally. Andrei Koribanics described the FE2b as "a nice kit". Back in 2001 DavidL1217 noted "the problems of doing this slowly as a one-man operation was the problem.  I only wished that the pattern maker got with an organized resin manufacturer as these were wonderful kits".
Regards
James
