Large sweet gems, the Showtime Plum Tree (Prunus salicina 'Showtime') is as beautiful as it is tasty! These healthy jewels are large and rounded with pointed ends, blushing a radiant reddish-purple when ripe! One bite into their golden juicy flesh and you'll know it's Showtime!

Showtime is an easy-to-care-for flowering tree that explodes into spring in clouds of white, fragrant blossoms! Bees will be buzzing and helping pollinate the blooms, especially if you have a Santa Rosa, Fortune or another type of suitable pollinator partner around to boost yields.

Plum Trees are classic multi-purpose fruiting and flowering trees that any spot in your yard can benefit from! Prune as needed for privacy, orchard use, specimens or hedges, the choice is yours! The dense foliage, low branching and lush green leaves will look great anywhere!

Planting and Application:

Plums are picturesque for both front and back yard landscaping! Add one to a front foundation planting, or soften the corner of a garage or side yard with a beautiful flowering tree. Keep them pruned small for easy harvest and to allow any sized property or established orchard to accommodate them! Best with a pollinator, plant groupings and clusters with other Plums to extend your harvest and your variety!

Adorn your property with gorgeous flowering trees while cementing your fresh food access for years to come! Using dual-purpose ornamentals is the way to ensure you use every bit of space while boosting curb appeal with ease!
