Plum Trees

Plum Buying Guide

Plums are show stoppers up here at the farm. Sometimes in August & September, you can’t see the ground through the multi-colored plums. The trick is to plant a grove of them (4-6 trees) 8-15’ apart & let them grow in a close group. Some magic happens between them. Plant Americans with Americans, Europeans with Europeans for cross-pollination. It’s OK to have both kinds in the same area.
