The Hollywood Plum is that perfect thing – an ornamental small tree that has a big crop of delicious fruit. The abundant pink blossoms on bare branches in spring are truly beautiful, and the purple leaves are attractive all summer, turning burgundy in fall. The delicious, top-quality plums have blood-red skin and flesh, with a loose stone. This tree grows rapidly, cropping within a couple of years, and soon giving big crops. They ripen between late June and early August, depending on the growing zone.
- Delicious loose-stone fruits with blood-red skin and flesh
- Ornamental pink blooms on bare branches in spring
- Attractive bronze-purple summer leaves turn burgundy in fall
- Grows and fruits well in hot states
- Partially self-fertile
Plant your Hollywood Plum tree in full sun, in any well-drained soil. Plums are among the easiest of all fruit trees to grow successfully, and don’t have too many pest or disease problems, as well as needing little pruning. This variety is self-fertile to a degree, and gives a decent crop when grown alone. For the biggest harvest, grow near another Japanese plum variety, such as ‘Bruce’, ‘Morris’, ‘Burbank’ or ‘Methley’.
