Prunus salicina 'Donsworth'

Foliage Deciduous
Form Round
Mature Size 2 x 1.5m
Family Rosaceae
Donsworth Dwarf Japanese Blood Plum

This is an early season, large clingstone blood plum, with dark pink to red skin. Flesh is light red and juicy. It is a vigorous growing variety and prolific bearer, so staking is recommended.

As a small-grower, this tree is suitable for all sizes of gardens, even small backyards. This variety can be eaten fresh or used in preserves and jams.

Plant in a sunny position with well-drained and well-worked soil. Take care to plant the bud union (graft) above the soil level. Water in well and keep the soil moist until the tree is established. Fertilise when planting and again after new growth appears. Prune to ensure new growth and fruiting the following year.
