Prunus nigra x salicina Pembina
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
SOLD OUT
Dolgo Crab Apple is one of the hardiest species of crab apple.
This fruit tree accent tree combination is commonly used in urban landscapes.
Dolgo Crab Apple produces clusters of white flowers before its deep green foliage emerges. Its small apple-like fruit is great for jams and jellies.
Pembina Plum is one of the best-tasting plums that can be planted on the prairies. It is semi-freestone with orange flesh that is soft, juicy, and sweet which contrasts with the thick, sour, dark red skin. The plums can grow up to 5 cm in diameter and are well-suited for fresh eating, baking, and preserves.
They typically ripen in mid to late August and should be picked as soon as they are ripe. If left too long, the fruit will fall off the tree.
Pembina Plum is a hybrid between Canada Plum and Japanese Plum. For fruit production, it needs to be planted with another variety for cross-pollination. Canada Plum and American Plum are considered universal pollinizers.
