Large 2" round early-ripening high-quality hardy blue-black dessert plum. Very sweet juicy reddish-purple semi-freestone flesh. Precocious and productive tree with a naturally compact growth habit.

Bred by Brian Smith, whom we visited on a fruit exploration trip in the Upper Midwest. He graciously toured us through his amazing nursery in River Falls, Wisconsin. He was growing many of his plums in huge tubs, manipulating bloom time using greenhouses and coolers. This enabled him to cross species or varieties that would never normally flower together.

Though we’re not fans of plant patenting, we are pleased to offer his first major introduction. The literature recommends Toka or La Crescent as a pollinator. PPA expired in 2024! Z3. Maine Grown. (3–6' bare-root trees)
