Red plum
with yellow flesh, FANTASTIC FLAVOR, medium size, pretty firm, 17-21 brix,
shouts Santa Rosa but crisp & juicy.
Does not have pollen, so bees are not attracted - each tree would have
to be spiked for cropping. Typical of
Red Beaut characteristics for setting, but way better flavor and about 5 days
earlier. Only has 14 days cold storage
life due to internal browning. |
