(Dwarf) Prunus Domestica 'Narrabeen' (Plum Narrabeen)
(Dwarf) Prunus Domestica 'Narrabeen' (Plum Narrabeen) is a compact and productive deciduous fruit tree, prized for its medium to large, dark red plums with juicy, sweet yellow flesh. This versatile fruit is perfect for fresh eating, cooking, and preserving, making it a popular choice for home gardeners.
Its dwarf size makes it ideal for smaller gardens, pots, or urban spaces while still delivering a generous harvest. In early spring, the tree bursts into bloom with a profusion of white blossoms, adding ornamental charm to its practicality. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils, Plum Narrabeen is partially self-fertile but benefits from cross-pollination with another plum variety for optimal yields. The fruit ripens in mid to late summer, providing a bountiful and delicious crop.
