Fruit tree

Prunus domestica 'Early Italian' is a European plum variety prized for its early production of elongated plums with blue-purple skin and golden yellow flesh that is sweet, juicy, and easily detached from the pit. Harvested earlier than the classic 'Italian Prune' variety, these fruits are ideal for fresh eating, drying, making jams, and desserts. The 'Early Italian' plum tree is distinguished by its generous spring flowering and its ability to adapt to temperate climates. It is partially self-fertile, but cross-pollination improves fruit quality and quantity. Vigorous and productive, this cultivar is an excellent choice for gardeners wishing to harvest delicious European plums from late summer.
