Pembina Plum

About the Pembina Plum

The Pembina Plum is a hardy, dependable prairie variety valued for its large, sweet-tart fruit and adaptability to cold northern climates. This vigorous tree produces deep red plums with golden-yellow flesh—excellent for fresh eating, canning, and preserves. Its reliable productivity and attractive form make it a favorite for both home gardens and small orchards.

In spring, the Pembina Plum is covered with a profusion of fragrant white blossoms that attract pollinators and signal the start of the season. By late summer, the fruit ripens to a rich red hue, offering a delicious balance of sweetness and tang. The tree’s lush green foliage provides ample shade throughout the growing season, turning soft yellow in the fall. Hardy, productive, and beautiful, the Pembina Plum is a classic prairie fruit tree that performs well even in tough conditions.
