The Perfect for Pollinators Badge this variety received ensures that the blossoms of the tree are cherished by bees and other pollinators.Staying compact even when fully established, Prunus Domestica Opal can grow to be 2.5 to 4 metres high and wide, its ultimate height depending on the rootstock. When it comes to pruning, it’s best performed either in early spring or late summer. Plum trees can be fan-trained, or pruned to have bushy or pyramid form. Adjust the maintenance practices according to the desired shape.Even though Opal Plum Tree is a popular choice for its sweet, juicy fruits, growing this tree can have ornamental benefits as well.
