Fruit & Nut Tree pre-ordering is now closed, Friends!
If you've placed your pre-order, pick-up weekend will be April 27 & 28, 2024 (from 10-2pm)!
Black Ice is actually a Japanese Plum crossed with native Western Sandcherry, released in 2006 from Brian Smith of University of Wisconsin River Falls. The Japanese parent brings the lush dark purple red skin and red-yellow flesh, and the Western Sandcherry lends Black Ice its incredible zone 3 cold hardiness. Sweet, juicy and I am delirious just remembering eating a Black Ice….Summer cannot come soon enough! Black Ice Hybrid Plum trees are 2-year old, non-organic, bare-root nursery stock.
Several Fruition tree varieties & rootstocks are patented, including this variety — to learn more, hop in here.
And Friends! This variety needs another Plum variety nearby for pollination.
Please purchase trees & tree kits separately from non-tree items. Also on orders of 25+ trees, enjoy a 10% discount automatically applied to your cart!
