Description
A dwarf form of the famous plum, producing large, heart-shaped fruit with dark crimson to purple skin and rich ruby-red flesh. Elephant Heart is celebrated for its exceptionally sweet, juicy flavour and striking appearance, making it one of the finest fresh-eating plums for home gardens.
Pollination: Partially self-fertile. For heavier and more reliable crops, plant with Santa Rosa, Mariposa, Satsuma or another compatible Japanese plum flowering at the same time.
Harvest: February
Best Uses: Fresh eating, fruit platters, desserts, jams, baking and preserving.
Position: Full sun in well-drained soil.
Why We Love It: Dwarf Elephant Heart produces some of the most spectacular plums you'll ever grow. The large, heart-shaped fruit is packed with juicy, ruby-red flesh and a rich, sweet flavour with just the right balance of tartness. Tasmania's warm summer days and cool nights help develop exceptional colour, sweetness and aroma, while the compact tree makes pruning, netting and harvesting much easier.
