TOKA PLUM TREE
The Toka Japanese Hybrid Plum, also known as the Bubblegum Plum, is a fast growing, cold-hardy hybrid that is a cross between the American Plum (Prunus americana) and the Japanese Plum (Prunus salicina). It has an upright, vase-shaped habit with fragrant white flowers along the branches in March and April and apricot colored, juicy clingstone red plums in summer. It is a self-pollinating fruit tree, but one of the best for pollinating others.
Toka thrives in loamy, well-drained soils with moderate moisture in full sun. It is an ornamental variety that may be messy along walkways, but makes an excellent accent tree in an orchard or landscape.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in well-draining soil with a slightly acidic pH. Water regularly, but avoid overwatering. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize annually with a balanced fertilizer. Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and promote fruiting.
