Methley Plum Tree

Prunus salicina - 'Methley'

The Methley Plum Tree is a standard plum which will grow to a height of 10-20' and have an equal spread. This is a self-pollinating and heavy bearing plum that will first produce fragrant, snowy-white flowers in the spring. Each summer, you will be able to make multiple harvests of the sweet, mild flavored, reddish-purple fruit. This fast growing tree displays good heat, drought and disease resistance.
