Hybrid Plums Prunus spp.
Extremely hardy crosses between various Asian and American species; may fruit even after severe winters.
Hybrid plum fruiting can be inconsistent but it’s worth the trouble! Warmer areas will see longer bloom times. Cold late springs may force blooming all at once. Both of these conditions can be optimal for plum crops. At other times, it can be a little hit or miss. Bloom times are similar for all the varieties we offer.
Hybrid plums are less susceptible to black knot than European plums and have few issues other than Japanese beetle and plum curculio attraction.
At maturity, hybrid plums are roughly 15–20' tall.
Growing Hybrid Plums
Soil: Prefers well-drained fertile soil.
Sun: Full.
Pollination: Requires a second variety. We recommend planting at least 4 different varieties close together. Including an American Plum Seedling in your grove can help ensure pollination.
