Prunus Domestica 'Narrabeen' (Plum Narrabeen)
Prunus Domestica 'Narrabeen' (Plum Narrabeen) is a reliable and highly productive deciduous fruit tree, prized for its medium to large, dark red plums with juicy, sweet yellow flesh. The fruit is excellent for fresh eating, preserving, and baking, offering a versatile addition to any home garden or orchard.
This tree produces a stunning display of white blossoms in early spring, enhancing its ornamental appeal before fruiting begins. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils, Plum Narrabeen is a low-maintenance variety well-suited to a range of climates. It is partially self-fertile but benefits significantly from cross-pollination with another plum variety for optimal yields. The harvest period typically occurs in mid to late summer, delivering a generous crop of delicious and flavourful plums.
