Black Ice is a cold hardy Wisconsin plum with Western Sand Cherry ancestry. It produces large, deep purple fruit with a blue bloom and vibrant red flesh. At Oak Summit Nursery, fruit on young grafts ripened in the second half of August, one to two weeks before local wild plums and earlier than Toka. The fruit is sweet and juicy with a gentle tart edge.
Choose an own root plant in a large plug or a grafted tree in a 4-inch pot. The grafted trees use Cherry Plum (Prunus 'Jeffchum') rootstock.
