Plumcot, Spring Satin
Prunus salicina x Prunus armeniaca 'Spring Satin'

Spring Satin Plumcot is a delicious hybrid of plum and apricot, offering the best of both worlds with its juicy, rich flavor and smooth, thin skin. This unique mid-season fruit has deep purple-black skin and bright yellow-orange flesh that is sweet with a slight tart edge, making it ideal for fresh eating, preserves, and baking. Ripening in late spring to early summer, Spring Satin Plumcot is one of the earliest stone fruits to mature, providing a fresh treat at the start of the fruiting season. This variety is partially self-pollinating but achieves a more abundant harvest when cross-pollinated with Japanese plum varieties like Santa Rosa or Methley.

Key Characteristics

  • Unique Plum-Apricot Flavor with Juicy Flesh
    Spring Satin Plumcot offers a delightful blend of sweet and tart flavors, combining the juicy texture of a plum with the subtle apricot notes. The fruit is smooth-skinned and easy to bite into, making it perfect for fresh eating as well as for making preserves or adding a twist to summer desserts.

  • Early-Maturing for a Head Start on Summer Fruit
    Ripening in late May to June, Spring Satin is one of the earliest fruits of the season, offering a harvest before many other stone fruits are ready. Its early ripening is perfect for those looking to enjoy fresh, homegrown fruit at the beginning of the summer.

  • Partially Self-Pollinating with Better Yields from Partners
    While Spring Satin can produce fruit without a pollinator, it benefits significantly from cross-pollination with Japanese plum varieties like Santa Rosa or Methley. A compatible pollination partner leads to larger, more abundant yields, making it a great addition to mixed orchards.

  • Smooth Skin and Freestone Flesh for Easy Use
    The smooth skin and freestone nature of Spring Satin make it easy to prepare and enjoy, with the pit easily separating from the flesh. This makes it convenient for snacking, slicing into fruit salads, or using in pies and jams.

  • Beautiful White Blossoms for Pollinator Support
    In early spring, Spring Satin Plumcot trees produce clusters of white flowers that attract bees and other pollinators, adding beauty to the garden while supporting biodiversity. These blooms are a lovely feature in the landscape before the fruit sets.
