Planting & Care

1. Planting: Plant your Flavor Queen Pluot in well-draining soil and in an area with 6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day, in proximity to another early-blooming plum tree for pollination.

Dig a hole that is twice as wide but just as deep as the root ball. Place your tree, backfill your soil and water to settle the roots. Mulch the surrounding soil to conserve moisture.

2. Watering: Unless you live in a dry area, your Flavor Queen Pluot can survive on rainfall alone – these drought-tolerant trees don’t like to be overwatered. When you do water, use a garden hose at a slow trickle.

3. Fertilizing: During the first few years, you can add balanced fertilizer at the beginning of spring. However, it is not necessary to fertilize your tree once it begins to bear fruit.

4. Pruning: Your Flavor Queen Pluot only requires light pruning in winter to get rid of dead branches. You can also do some additional pruning to lighten the branches or maintain a neat shape, but it is not necessary.
