Plum Simka Semidwarf

Simka Semidwarf Plum

Simka Plum bears heart-shaped fruit with deep purple skin and golden flesh. The sweet, firm freestone plums suit fresh eating and preserves and generally ripen in August. The tree has a spreading habit and white flowers.

Simka is self-fertile, though a compatible plum nearby can improve cropping. Plant in full sun and well-drained loam. Confirm the semi-dwarf rootstock before choosing planting distances.
