Plum Varieties Include
- Magenta Plum (1.5 lbs.) – This new hybrid variety has a dark burgundy skin that protects a rich, deep red interior fruit. Its flavor is extremely sweet with a sugar content of 17-19 brix! Unlike most plum varieties, the Magenta plum has no astringent aftertaste and, in fact, has a flavor reminiscent of fresh sweet cherries.
- Honey Jade Plum (1.5 lbs.) – The honey-sweet yet nuanced flavor is what really makes this a prized gem during the hot summer months! Sweet and refreshing, they’re the epitome of the season’s luscious abundance. Enjoy out-of-hand for a superb snack, or slice and use as a wonderful addition to leafy green salads with candied nuts and tangy goat cheese.
