BlueFre Plum

BlueFre Plum

Prunus domestica 'BlueFre'

BlueFree plums were grown by Grandpa to help lengthen the plum season after Stanley.  BlueFre is a good quality purple plum, much larger than Stanley with excellent sweet flavor.  The tree is vigorous and extremely hardy.  Somewhat self-fertile, but will set better crops with a pollinator.
