About Plum
Plums are one of the easiest and most reliable home orchard trees — hardy, adaptable, and heavily productive, with European and Japanese types for different climates.
Plant in full sun with good drainage. Most need a pollinator, so plant two compatible varieties. Thin fruit for size. Trees bear in 3-6 years.
Gardening in Saskatchewan
Saskatchewan has a cold dry continental climate. Regina and Saskatoon are Zone 3b-4a. Cold winters are offset by long summer days and intense sunshine. Focus on cold-hardy crops and short-season varieties.
