How to grow japanese plum

When to plant japanese plum

Clemson Extension says to plant plum trees as early as possible in winter while dormant. Japanese plums bloom early, so an early-spring planting of dormant bare-root stock lets the roots establish before bud break.

Japanese Plum is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
