Prune Trees

Naturally sweet fruit ideal for drying and fresh eating

Prune trees are specific European plum varieties selected for their high natural sugar content and firm flesh, making them ideal for drying into prunes as well as enjoying fresh. These trees are productive, adaptable, and well-suited for home gardens, orchards, and small farms across many California climate zones.

Compared to common dessert plums, prune varieties typically have denser flesh and lower moisture, allowing the fruit to dry naturally without fermentation. Many growers appreciate prune trees for their reliability, storage qualities, and culinary versatility.
