This extraordinary fruit tree not only delivers delectable plums but also enhances the beauty of your garden. Whether you're a seasoned orchardist or a home gardener, the June Yellow Plum Tree guarantees abundant harvests and adds ornamental charm to your outdoor space. Here's a comprehensive exploration of this remarkable tree, including essential growing information, fruit description, chill hour requirements, and pollination considerations:

Product Highlights:

Prolific Fruit Production: The June Yellow Plum Tree is celebrated for its consistent yield of sweet, juicy plums. These plums are versatile, perfect for fresh snacking, baking, preserving, or crafting delicious jams and jellies. Expect a rich harvest year after year.

Low-Chill Variety: As a low-chill plum tree, it thrives in regions with mild winters. Its adaptability to areas with limited chilling hours extends its appeal to a wide range of climates.

Ornamental Beauty: Beyond its fruit-bearing prowess, this tree graces your garden or orchard with beautiful spring blossoms and lush green foliage. It enhances the aesthetic allure of your outdoor space.

Growing Information:

Hardiness Zone: The June Yellow Plum Tree is well-suited for USDA hardiness zones 5 to 9, making it adaptable to diverse winter conditions.

Sunlight: Ensure your plum tree is planted in a sunny location, receiving full sun. A minimum of 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily is vital for robust growth and prolific fruit production.

Soil Requirements: Plum trees thrive in well-drained, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Good drainage is crucial to prevent waterlogged roots. Enhance soil quality by adding organic matter like compost or aged manure.

Planting: Spring is the ideal time to plant your June Yellow Plum Tree when it's dormant. Choose a location with good drainage and ample space for the tree's growth. Dig a wide hole to comfortably accommodate the root system.

Watering: Young plum trees require consistent moisture to establish strong roots. Water deeply and consistently, especially during the growing season. As the tree matures, it becomes more drought-tolerant but still benefits from regular watering during dry spells.

Pruning: Prune your plum tree in late winter or early spring to remove dead or diseased branches, maintain a balanced canopy, and promote air circulation and sunlight penetration. Proper pruning reduces the risk of fungal diseases.

Fertilization: Fertilize your June Yellow Plum Tree annually in early spring with a balanced fertilizer. Follow the recommended dosage on the fertilizer package to ensure proper nutrient availability.

Pest and Disease Control: Monitor your plum tree for common pests like aphids and plum curculio and apply appropriate pest control measures when needed. Implement good sanitation practices and consider using fungicides for disease prevention and management.

Fruit Description:

The June Yellow Plum Tree bears medium-sized plums with bright yellow skin and sweet, juicy, and flavorful flesh. These plums are perfect for fresh eating and various culinary uses.

Chill Hour Requirements:

The June Yellow Plum Tree typically requires approximately 400-500 chill hours. Chill hours refer to the number of hours of cold temperatures (usually below 45°F or 7°C) during the winter. Adequate chill hours are necessary for breaking dormancy and fruit production.

Pollination:

The June Yellow Plum Tree is self-fertile, which means it can produce fruit without a pollination partner. However, having another plum tree nearby for cross-pollination can often enhance fruit production and lead to larger yields.
