The Santa Rosa plum tree (Prunus salicina 'Santa Rosa') is a popular fruit-bearing tree known for producing sweet, juicy, red-purple plums with a golden interior. It is a medium-sized tree that grows quickly and thrives in full sunlight, reaching heights of about 15-20 feet. The Santa Rosa tree is self-pollinating, though it benefits from cross-pollination with other plum varieties. It blooms with fragrant white flowers in spring and bears fruit in mid-to-late summer. It is well-suited for temperate climates and is valued for its reliable fruit production and ornamental beauty.
