Prunus domestica 'Early Golden'
Prunus domestica ‘Early Golden’, or 'Early Golden' plum, is an early European plum variety prized for its abundant production of golden fruits with firm, sweet, and juicy flesh, ideal for fresh consumption or preservation. Its compact rounded habit and white spring blossoms make it a fruit tree that is both useful and decorative, attracting pollinating insects. Adapted to residential orchards and small gardens in Quebec, this plum tree is self-sterile but becomes very productive when paired with another compatible variety. Hardy and undemanding, it prefers well-drained and fertile soils, as well as full sun exposure to ensure optimal fruit ripening. The 'Early Golden' plum stands out for its early harvest, remarkable flavor, and good cold resistance, making it an excellent choice for gardeners who love golden plums.
