Sweet Golden Plums Meet Spring Beauty
Transform your garden with the Beauty Japanese Plum Tree—a powerhouse performer that combines ornamental elegance with impressive fruit production. This self-fertile variety bursts into fragrant white blossoms each spring, creating a spectacular floral display before transitioning into a reliable producer of sweet, golden-yellow plums. The tree's vigorous growth habit and attractive canopy make it a landscape standout, while its adaptability to diverse soil types and growing conditions ensures success across most regions. Reaching a practical size for residential gardens, the Beauty Plum demands minimal fussing once established. Expect consistent mid-summer harvests of premium-quality fruit perfect for fresh eating straight off the branch, or use your bounty for jams, pies, and preserves. Plant in full sun with well-draining soil and watch this exceptional variety deliver year after year.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant your Beauty Plum in well-draining soil and in full to partial sun.
Dig a hole that is twice as wide but just as deep as the root ball. Place your tree, backfill your soil and water to settle the roots. Mulch the surrounding soil to conserve moisture.
2. Watering: You will not likely need to water your Beauty Plum Tree unless you live in a very dry area with little irrigation. If you’re not sure when to water, check your surrounding soil about 3 inches down. If the soil is dry here, it’s time to water.
3. Fertilizing: During the first few years, you can add balanced fertilizer at the beginning of spring. However, it is not necessary to fertilize your tree once it begins to bear fruit.
4. Pruning: Your Beauty Plum only requires light pruning in winter to get rid of dead branches. You can also do some additional pruning to lighten the branches or maintain a vase shape, but it is not necessary.
