Plum, Opal, 5Ft

Plum, Opal, 5Ft

Plum, Opal, is a popular variety of dessert plum that is widely grown for its sweet and juicy fruits. It is a self-fertile variety that is known for its heavy and reliable crop, making it an ideal choice for gardeners and orchard growers.

The best position for planting Opal plum trees is in a sunny spot with well-drained soil. The soil should be rich in organic matter and have a pH level of around 6.0 to 7.0. Plum trees should be planted during the dormant season, which is typically between late autumn and early spring.

Opal plum trees typically take around 2-4 years from planting to fruiting, depending on the growing conditions. This variety produces medium-sized, oval-shaped fruits that are ready to harvest in mid- to late August.

The tree itself can grow up to 4-5 meters tall and spread out to a width of around 3-4 meters. To encourage healthy growth and fruiting, Opal plum trees should be fed regularly with a balanced fertilizer, preferably every spring.

Opal plum trees are self-fertile, meaning they can produce fruit without another plum tree for pollination. However, planting another variety of plum tree nearby can increase the likelihood of successful pollination and a larger harvest.

Overall, Opal is a delicious and reliable variety of plum that produces high-quality fruits. It is a great choice for home gardeners and orchard growers, and is sure to be a sweet addition to any fruit garden.
