Dwarf Italian Plum Tree Bare Root

Stock status: In stock
Country: United Kingdom

The Italian Plum is a fantastic, well-rounded tree that always produces a significant amount of extra sweet, dark purple, oval shaped fruit. A key benefit of Italian is that it’s everbearing, meaning the fruit keeps ripening all summer and early fall. Italian also blooms quite late for a plum tree, which is beneficial to avoid late frosts. This makes Italian ideal for colder climates where other plum trees wouldn’t survive. The Italian will stay quite small with proper care, making it easy to keep fresh fruit within arms reach. If you’re interested in a plum tree and have minimal space then Italian is an excellent choice.
