Stanley Plum

Prunus domestica - Stanley Plum

Stanley is a European, self-fertile blue plum with golden flesh. A small, disease-resistant tree producing very sweet fruit that ripens in August. White flowers bloom later than Japanese plums, helping avoid spring frost damage. Excellent for fresh eating and also well-suited for drying into prunes due to its firmer, drier flesh

We use Surround in early spring to help control plum curculio larvae in fruit.
