My Edible Fruit Trees: Plum Trees NSW

Plum - Red seedling (Seedling) ^9/10

Edward3's Edible Fruits
Update: 411 days 2hrs

Comments: - Grew this plant from seed of fruit labelled as Red Plum, which might actually be Amber Jewel. The tree has now fruited and the result is a firm, very dark red large plum with a good flavour. Crop has been limited, possibly due to need for cross-pollination, so have now planted other plum tree seedlings nearby for that purpose. Grows vigorously in Sydney. Also grafted on in Katoomba where it produced a large crop of large plums.

Planted: 2015

Height 3 metres

Growing: In the Ground

Qty: 1

Fruit Harvest: 10 Fruit Per Year

First Fruited: 4 Years from Seed

Sun/Shade: Full Sun

Water Given in: Autumn

Summer

Pollination: Self Pollination

Pest Control: Using fruit bags on individual plums.

Where are you located and is your tree fruiting? I've read that the plant only fruits (well) in tropical areas.

sandy31 says... [3277 days 21hrs ago]

I m in Sydney west. I have several jambolan plum trees growing in in india on my farm. They usually fruit after 4..5 yrs of planting. Also i bought this as few days ago only and is growing in a pot. Need to wait 3..4 yrs for fruit though. Once its eastablished it should fruit as in syd weather. Not sure about melbourne though

Edward3's Edible Fruits

Comments: - Tree growing in Katoomba. Excellent slightly tart flavour. Must be patient not to pick till fully ripe to get best flavour, but not allow to overripen as it will lose flavour completely.

Plum - Reine Claude de Bavay (Grafted) ^9/10

Edward3's Edible Fruits
Update: 1534 days 5hrs

Comments: - This variety is reported to be very tasty and is popular in Europe. Does not appear to be available in Australia, but I was fortunate to obtain one from a private grower in Victoria. Tree being grown in Katoomba. First fruit in 2017 - very similar to green gage so I suspect it is not Reine Claude. Bought a scion of Reine Claude in 2021 from grower guaranteeing it is genuine, and grafted it on.

Spicezee - Nectarine x Plum ^5/10

Sandy31's Edible Fruits
Update: 2473 days 6hrs

Comments: -

The first NectaPlum%uFFFD from Zaiger Genetics: a white-fleshed, nectarine-peach-plum hybrid. Skin is dark maroon at fruit set, and turns pale pink when ripe. Fully ripe fruit is unparalled in flavor, and both nectarine and plum traits are easily detectable. Very productive tree is also quite ornamental. Tremendous purplish pink bloom in the spring, followed by a flourish of red leaves which mature into lush green in late summer.
