Description

The Methley Plum is a great choice for gardeners looking for a delicious, easy-to-grow fruit tree. For those living in USDA Hardiness Zones 5-9, the Methley Plum is an ideal choice for adding to any garden or orchard.

The Methley Plum is a Japanese-type plum tree that produces large, red-purple fruit that is firm and juicy. The trees are self-fertile and can produce a large crop of fruit each season. The fruit is excellent for eating fresh, canning, or preserves, and can also be dried or frozen.

The Methley Plum is a very hardy tree, tolerant of cold weather and some drought. It will thrive in a variety of soil types, as long as the soil is well-drained. It prefers full sun, but can tolerate some shade.

The Methley Plum is a beautiful tree, with a rounded canopy and an attractive, spreading habit. The foliage is a deep green and the bark is a reddish-brown. In the spring, the tree is covered in white flowers that give way to the large, round, purple-red plums in the summer. It is easy to care for and can be pruned to maintain a smaller size, if desired. It is a relatively pest-free tree, and does not need to be sprayed with pesticides.

If you are looking for an attractive, easy-to-grow fruit tree that produces a large crop of delicious fruit each season, the Methley Plum is a great choice. With its hardiness and disease resistance, it is an ideal choice for gardeners in USDA Hardiness Zones 5-9.
