Prunus salicina 'Santa Rosa'
Santa Rosa Plum

• In coastal Southern California, it is important to choose plum trees with a low chilling requirement. A number of Japanese Plum varieties generally fruit well in this climate, and some are even self-fruitful (others need a different variety for pollination). Since fruit is formed on year-old wood, it is often recommended to prune these vigorous trees in the late spring or early summer (rather than in winter), especially if you are pruning to control the size of the tree.
