This mid season Japanese Plum ripens late July to mid Aug. The fruit is large, firm, flattened, sweet & flavorful with purplish-black skin and amber flesh. It has very little tartness at the skin and pit. Tree is self-fertile and requires 400-500 chill hours. A favorite fresh market fruit that’s excellent for the home orchard.
