Toka Plum Tree

Self-fertile

Known as the “Bubblegum Plum,” the Toka Plum Tree is one of the most unique and flavorful plums you can grow. Developed by the University of Minnesota, this exceptional variety has earned its nickname from its incredibly sweet, spicy flavor and unmistakable bubblegum-like aroma. If you’re looking for a plum that’s unlike any other, Toka is sure to become a favorite.

The medium-sized fruit features beautiful reddish-bronze skin with rich apricot-colored flesh. Each bite is juicy, incredibly sweet, and bursting with flavor that’s often described as tasting like candy. Toka plums are outstanding for fresh eating but are also delicious in jams, preserves, and desserts.

One of Toka’s greatest advantages is that it is self-fertile, so a single tree will produce fruit. It is also one of the best pollinators for other plum varieties because it produces an abundance of pollen, helping increase fruit production throughout your orchard.

The Toka Plum Tree produces a spectacular display of creamy white blossoms each spring, followed by lush green foliage that transforms into rich burgundy-purple shades in the fall. Its attractive vase-shaped growth habit makes it as beautiful in the landscape as it is productive in the orchard.

This hardy tree adapts well to a wide range of soil types and thrives in full sun to partial shade with well-drained soil. Toka is also highly disease resistant, making it an excellent choice for gardeners looking for a dependable, easy-to-grow fruit tree.

Originally introduced in 1911, Toka is a cross between the American plum and the fragrant Chinese apricot, combining outstanding flavor, beauty, and reliability into one remarkable tree.
