Plum Tree

€45.00
The Plum Tree is a compact and productive fruit tree that offers both decorative appeal and reliable fruiting. In spring, it produces an abundance of white blossoms that brighten gardens and attract pollinators. These flowers develop into plums that ripen in late summer, making the tree a valuable addition to home gardens and orchards. Plum trees are particularly suited to smaller gardens due to their manageable size while still delivering generous harvests. They establish well in Irish growing conditions and provide long term performance with proper care.

Plum trees are particularly suited to smaller gardens due to their manageable size while still delivering generous harvests. They establish well in Irish growing conditions and provide long term performance with proper care.
Plum trees should be planted during the dormant season from November to March to allow roots to establish before spring growth begins. Container grown trees can be planted year round if watered consistently.
Choose a sunny, sheltered site with well prepared, free draining soil. Dig a hole wide enough to allow roots to spread easily and plant the tree at ground level. Firm the soil and water thoroughly after planting.
Water during the first growing season, especially during dry periods. Prune lightly after fruiting to maintain shape and encourage healthy growth. Mulching helps retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Plum trees offer spring blossom and a late summer harvest, making them both ornamental and productive within a compact footprint.
