Plum ‘Mariposa’ is a vibrant, blood-fleshed variety known for its sweet, juicy flavour and striking deep red fruit. This early to mid-season plum is perfect for fresh eating, cooking, and preserving. The tree grows to around 3 to 5 metres tall and thrives in full sun with well-drained soil. It benefits from cross-pollination with other plum varieties to ensure a good crop. Ideal for temperate climates.

Chill requirement: Approximately 300 to 500 chill hours

Note: Supplied as a bare root plant during the dormant season unless potted or bagged. Keep roots moist and out of direct sun until planted.
