Pot Size

Prunus Domestica ‘Donsworth’ Dwarf (Donsworth Plum Dwarf) is a compact fruiting tree, perfect for smaller gardens and backyard orchards. It produces medium to large dark red plums with a sweet, juicy flavour and yellow flesh. The fruit is excellent for eating fresh, preserving, or using in desserts.

This dwarf variety maintains all the productivity of a standard plum but in a smaller, more manageable size. It is self-fertile, meaning it does not require another plum tree for pollination, and will reliably produce heavy crops when grown in full sun with well-drained soil.
