Why this variety: Toka “Bubblegum Plum” was introduced in 1911 in South Dakota and was a cross between the American plum and the fragrant apricot of China. It’s self-pollinating but also produces a ton of pollen to help other plum trees nearby that may require cross pollination. The fruit is incredibly sweet, like candy, earning its nickname “Bubblegum Plum”. It has tolerated temperatures as low as -50 degrees F.
This is from our 3 in 1 grafted multi plum tree. The others didn’t make it but the Toka graft was good so we’ve discounted the tree.
Current plant size: 1” trunk diameter 5-gallon nursery pot
