Pot Size

(Dwarf) Prunus Salicina 'Sugar' (Plum Sugar) is a compact deciduous fruit tree, prized for its medium to large, golden-yellow plums with sweet, juicy flesh. Renowned for its exceptional flavour, this variety is perfect for fresh eating, desserts, and preserving, making it a versatile and 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 produces beautiful white blossoms, adding ornamental value before the fruit develops. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils, Plum Sugar is partially self-fertile but benefits from cross-pollination with another Japanese plum variety for increased fruit production. The fruit ripens in mid to late summer, providing a bountiful and delicious harvest.
