PRUNUS SANTA ROSA
Grower Notes:
Prunus salicina 'Santa Rosa' is a delightfully small, fast-growing tree, commonly known as the Santa Rosa Japanese Plum. Its rounded canopy is adorned with finely serrated, bright green leaves, creating a lush backdrop for its fragrant, white flowers that bloom in early spring.
In mid to late summer, Santa Rosa Plum produces a bountiful harvest of medium to large, purplish-red plums. The juice, sweet, and aromatic flesh makes them perfect for eating fresh, canned, or crafting delicious jellies and jams. While the Santa Rosa Plum is self-fertile, planting other plum varieties nearby can further enhance fruit production.
To thrive, Santa Rosa requires full sun and well-drained, loamy soil with a mildly acidic pH. It typically begins fruiting within 3-5 years and has a chill requirement of 300 hours before 45F degrees.
