Early columnar plum KOLONOVIDNAJA

Early Russian columnar plum variety. Plant 1-1.5 m apart in a row. It crops abundantly every year; thin young fruit so the plums grow large. Cross-pollinating and early flowering.

Tree: medium-sized with a narrow column-like crown, reaching 2.5-3.5 m.

Fruit: attractive pink-purple, large (55-70 g), oval-round, with pink, firm, juicy and aromatic flesh and a fresh sweet-and-sour taste. Suitable for dessert and preserves. Does not rot in rainy weather but can overripe quickly.

Begins fruiting in the second year. Ripens from early to mid-August. Moderately resistant to frost and disease.
