Prunus Salicina × Armeniaca ‘Plumscrumptious’ (Plumscrumptious Plumcot)

Prunus Salicina × Armeniaca ‘Plumscrumptious’ (Plumscrumptious Plumcot) is a distinctive deciduous fruit tree that combines the best characteristics of plum and apricot. It produces attractive white to pale pink blossoms in late winter to early spring, followed by richly coloured fruit with red to deep plum skin and mulberry-red flesh. The fruit is sweet, juicy and aromatic, blending the flavour of a plum with the fragrant character of an apricot.

Ideal for home orchards and productive gardens, ‘Plumscrumptious’ offers both ornamental spring blossom and delicious summer fruit. It performs best in full sun and well-drained soil, and fruiting is improved when grown near a compatible Japanese plum such as ‘Mariposa’. Its manageable size also makes it suitable for smaller garden spaces when maintained with regular pruning.
