Mann Sour Plum Tree from Stark Bro’s

Description

Super sour plum--a southern favorite. Bumper crops of yellow-green plums in just 2-3 years! Known in the South as a “fresh-eating plum” and enjoyed with a sprinkle of salt! Cook and bake with it--use it like a pie cherry. We made our own Chinese Plum Sauce! Snowy-white flowers in spring. These are disease resistant and frost tolerant. Pollinate with Methley or any Japanese plum. Ripens in June.
