Toka plum ripening on chokecherry rootstock

Oak Summit Nursery · Southern Manitoba

toka plum, just about fully ripe hanging on at the start of september, a few more days and they'll get a darker red. awesome bubblegum flavour, surprises everyone who tries it. this graft is four year old on wild chokecherry rootstock, it's shaked and top heavy with growth, I'll need to prune it next spring. a good fruit set finally after I bought over some wild plum boughs in a vase while it was flowering.
