The Autumn Rosa plum would be a perfect addition for your orchard, giving you fresh fruit early to late September at a time when most of your other fruit trees may have already finished. The plums are medium to large with purple red skin with amber cast. The flesh is yellow with red streaks, solid and with excellent flavor. The Autumn Rosa is a heavy producer and is self fertile. Another advantage of this plum variety is that the fruit ripens over a long period and holds well on the tree. 500 chill hours. Shipped potted in soil to ensure the best possible start when planted in yard or garden.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the fruit taste?
Fruit has excellent flavor. Plant when you have a craving for fresh fruit after summer is over and everything else has already been picked, eaten or canned.

Something you gotta try, as suggested by one of my fruit tree suppliers, L.E. Cooke Company from Visalia California... “Plant 3 or 4 trees in the space of 1. Fruit trees are planted for the purpose of harvesting the reward of incredibly delicious tree ripened fruit. Why not extend this pleasure from 2-3 weeks to 10 to 12 weeks?” How is that done you ask? Read further…
The trees should be planted in a triangle (or box for 4) 24-30 inches apart and at a slight outward angle. The center limbs are pruned so that crossing limbs are removed. Otherwise, normal care is all that is necessary.

Can you give me suggestions on which varieties to choose that would be best for combining into a limited space?
Pick a combination of varieties that are similar in growth habit and foliage texture. Varieties can be selected for mild winter areas, traditional fruit growing areas, mountains or deserts. Why not have fruit all summer long?

For example?
Apples….red, green and yellow, or early, mid and late season. Apricots...June, July and August ripening. Cherries...early June ripening, mid June ripening and a sweet pollinator. Plums...red meat, purple meat and yellow meat.... I think you get the picture. Just have fun!
