Description:
The Santa Rosa Plum tree is a self-pollinating fruit tree that bears plump purple and pink fruit. The Santa Rosa Plum tree does not produce fruit every year, usually due to its sensitivities to weather and insects. These trees mature in 3-5 years and grow in USDA zones 5-9.
Care
Because the Santa Rosa Plum tree is self-pollinating and needs little space it is the perfect garden addition for a small family or residential home. The Santa Rosa plum tree can grow to be up to 25 feet tall but can be pruned to be kept much smaller at a height of 6-12 feet. Plum trees are full-sun trees that require a soil pH of 4.5 to 7.5
