FAQS for Buying Plum Trees Online
What is the difference between European and Japanese Plum trees?
What is the difference between European and Japanese Plum trees?
European Plum trees tend to produce smaller, sweeter fruit that ripens later and stores well, making them ideal for drying into prunes. Japanese Plum trees generally bear larger fruit that ripens earlier and is perfect for fresh eating. European varieties like Italian Plum are great for cool climates, while Japanese types like Elephant Heart thrive in warmer zones and often need a pollination partner.
Do Plum trees need a pollinator to produce fruit?
Do Plum trees need a pollinator to produce fruit?
Some Plum trees are self-fruitful, while others require a compatible pollination partner. Most European Plums benefit from cross-pollination with another European variety. Many Japanese Plums, like the Toka Plum, need another variety nearby to ensure a bountiful harvest. Always check the specific tree’s product page for pollination requirements.
