Plum x Apricot ‘Plumscrumptious’ – Freshly Potted*
A deciduous fruit tree that brings the flavour and characteristics of a plum and apricot together. Plumscrumptious produces long stems with elliptic purplish leaves which change colour in Autumn. Will require annual pruning once the foliage has dropped in Winter. This will encourage a stronger branching framework, airflow through the canopy and better fruit quality. Produces small to medium size fruit with red to deep plum colour skin. The flesh is mulberry red with an excellent sweet flavour. Ideal for eating fresh, cooking, drying or preserving. This is an ideal tree for smaller gardens, patios, apartments, food gardens or planted into a large pot. Grows best in humus-rich soil which is well-draining.
