Producing an excellent crop of full-sized fruit, Prunus salicina Dwarf Ruby Blood Plum delivers medium to large rounded blood plums with dark red skin and deep red sweet juicy flesh. A freestone variety, the delicious fruit is suitable for use fresh, dried and will make a lovely jam. Like most plums, Ruby Blood needs a cross-pollinator growing nearby; Narrabeen, Mariposa or Satsuma are suitable. Grafted onto dwarfing rootstock, our Dwarf Plums will grow in a much smaller space, making them ideal for patio tubs. Like all produce plants, correct pruning, regular fertilising and watering will result in an abundance of fruit.
