Fuchsia skin, golden flesh.
Midsummer. Seedling of Formosa. Japanese plum, first described in 1952 and still one of the most widely grown varieties in Japan and Korea.
The name is pronounced “wishy-washy”, but the quality is anything but! Large oblong fruit ripens to a majestic fuchsia, with sweet-tart golden flesh. Clingstone. This is the first plum to ripen at Scott Farm in Vermont, in mid-July. Needs another Japanese-type plum for pollination. Z4.
