Satsuma Plum Tree

The Satsuma Plum Tree is a beautiful Japanese plum variety celebrated for its striking appearance, exceptional flavor, and reliable production. This vigorous tree produces medium to large, round plums with deep dark red skin that opens to reveal stunning blood-red flesh that’s as beautiful as it is delicious.

The juicy flesh offers a rich, sweet flavor balanced with just the right amount of tanginess, making Satsuma one of the finest plums for fresh eating. Its vibrant color and outstanding taste also make it an excellent choice for jams, jellies, preserves, pies, cobblers, sauces, and other homemade desserts.

Ripening in mid to late summer, Satsuma produces dependable harvests of fruit that resists cracking, allowing you to enjoy high-quality plums throughout the season. The tree is vigorous, hardy, and easy to grow, making it an excellent addition to both home orchards and larger plantings.

While the Satsuma Plum Tree is self-fertile, planting another Japanese plum variety nearby, such as Santa Rosa, can increase pollination and result in even heavier harvests.

In early spring, the tree is covered with beautiful white blossoms that attract bees and other pollinators before giving way to its colorful summer fruit.
