Fruit tree

Prunus domestica 'Superior' is a hybrid plum tree prized for its large, bright red fruits with juicy, sweet, and intensely aromatic golden-yellow flesh. Developed for northern climates, this variety is known for its hardiness and rapid fruit set. 'Superior' plums are excellent for fresh eating, jams, desserts, and freezing. This cultivar requires cross-pollination with another compatible variety, such as 'Toka' or 'Alderman', as it is not self-fertile. The tree produces abundant and decorative spring blooms, while also providing a generous harvest in late summer. Vigorous, disease-resistant, and highly productive, the 'Superior' plum tree is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking a flavorful, hardy, and reliable variety.
