Burbank Plum Fruit Tree

A compact, semi dwarf tree for the home orchard valued for its heavy yields of reddish purple plums in midsummer. White flowers in late spring. Very adaptable to a wide variety of soil types.


  • Tasty fruits are particularly good for commercial production, eating fresh, canning and baking
  • To set fruit, tree requires 300-450 chill hours of a winter temperature at 45 degree or below
  • Plums are semi freestone with reddish purple skins and a buttery yellow flesh
  • Cross pollinate with Santa Rosa or Medley for higher yields
  • Tree is grown in and ships in a 5 gal. pot and is approximately 4 ft. - 5 ft. tall after planting in ground
  • We’re sorry, due to state or federal regulations, this plant cannot be shipped to Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, South Carolina, Utah and Washington
  • May ship in a dormant state, with bare branches and no leaves, especially in early spring when plant has been pruned back to promote lateral branching
  • To accommodate mature size or when planting in groups, space 10 ft. away from other plants or structures
  • Performs best in plant growing zones 5 to 9, when grown in other zones, special care will be necessary
