This peculiar plum tree abundantly produces unique and tasty 2”-3” green to yellow fruit. One side of the plum always bulges out fatter than the other, giving it the appearance of a waxing half-moon shape. The dense green flesh is similar to a prune plum in flavor, texture and sweetness. It turns yellow as it softens and sweetens. Freestone. May be good dried. Ripens August at 2700’

We cannot find an identity for this old plum tree and it appears to be a cross of plums. The fruit is similar to a European prune plum in texture and flavor but not entirely. The leaves have some Japanese Plum and perhaps other plum species genetics as well. Truly unique and unusual.

The Healthy Mother Tree Grows in Grass Valley as a mini forest hedge and has been tamed to the corner of a backyard where it has successfully dropped and sprouted many of its seeds. To the naked eye, they appear true to seed. The trees appear healthy and green and seem to produce fruits prolifically.
