Prunus Salicina 'Sugar' (Plum Sugar)

Prunus Salicina 'Sugar' (Plum Sugar) is a sweet and productive deciduous fruit tree, prized for its medium to large, round plums with golden-yellow skin and flesh. Renowned for its intensely sweet flavour, this variety is ideal for fresh eating, desserts, and preserving. Its juicy and aromatic fruit makes it a standout choice for home gardeners seeking a reliable and delicious harvest.

The tree blooms in early spring with a profusion of white flowers, adding ornamental charm to any garden before the fruit develops. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils, Plum Sugar is a hardy and adaptable variety. It is partially self-fertile but benefits from cross-pollination with another Japanese plum variety for increased fruit production. The fruit typically ripens in mid to late summer, providing an abundant and delightful harvest.
