Patterson Pride is a beautiful plum tree known for its unique weeping style formation. It produces heavy yields of sweet and juicy dark red coloured plums. The plums are firm and freestone and average 4 to 5 cm (2") in size.

The Patterson Pride Plum is our latest ripening plum, generally ready to harvest by mid-September. It is excellent to eat fresh off the tree and also great for processing into jam and jelly. Introduced in 1960 by C.F. Patterson at the University of Saskatchewan, it is a great fruit for jam and jelly.

 

Growers Note: It is highly recommended that you purchase a Canada Plum or an American Plum to pollinate our Hybrid plums, as they are self-sterile. Plum trees like fertile, well-drained soil. They should be planted at least 3-4m (12-15 feet) apart, and fruit can be expected around 4 to 6 years of age.
