Wonderful
Reviewed By: Noemi Ruiz (New Castle , PA)
Ordered two of the Alderman Plum Semi Draft trees & One of the Superior Plum at the beginning of the year. It just arrived yesterday, fast shipping & in great condition. Trees were budding, showing signs of life, etc... Can't wait to eat fruit these types of plums. It gets really cold & late frost is an issue in this area, I'm glad these varieties are cold hardy.

This tree was loaded with fruit the first season after planting. There were so many plums that I had to thin them out! Here in northeast Georgia it blooms early and sets fruit by the end of March.
