The Ozark Premier Plum Tree brings you something different – a dark red to purple skin with attractive pale yellow flesh that is sweet and juicy, with just a touch of tang. This mid-season variety ripens in the first weeks of July with a big crop of very large plums, and it is self-fertile, so you don’t need a second tree – ideal for smaller gardens. Attractive fragrant white blossoms smother the bare branches in March, as pretty as a picture – and picture that big crop coming in just a few years with this fast-growing variety. Plant it on a lawn as a small shade tree, or near your kitchen door for easy harvesting.
The Ozark Premier Plum Tree should be grown in full sun for the maximum growth and the heaviest crop. Plant it in any well-drained soil – it isn’t fussy and it will grow in alkaline, or sandy soils without trouble. Resistant to most serious diseases of plum trees, pests are rarely a problem and this vigorous tree needs just a little trimming in late winter – no complex pruning needed.
