Italian Plum (“Sheryl’s Plum”)
$10.00
Prunus domestica. These traditional Italian plum tree type plums, feature the classic Italian elongated fruits so wonderful in tarts and desserts, eaten fresh or dried. Classic, high yielding and dependable plums, the Italian plum is excellent as an orchard, backyard or landscape tree.
The mother tree for these plums is in Junction city Oregon at Mountain View Farm where it produces bumper crops of Italian plums every year for market.
Because these are seedling trees and not grafted they may not be 100% identical to the mother tree but will no doubt be strong and healthy Italian plum trees in their own right.
