Description
The Toka Plum is a cold-hardy hybrid plum prized for its rich flavor, beautiful red skin, and exceptional sweetness. A cross between the American Plum and the fragrant Apricot, this unique variety combines hardy performance with outstanding dessert-quality fruit, making it a favorite for northern growers.
Toka produces medium-sized, red-skinned fruit with apricot-colored clingstone flesh that is sweet with a distinctive spicy note. The complex flavor makes it excellent for fresh eating right off the tree, while also shining in desserts, jams, and preserves. Its reliable performance in colder climates adds to its strong reputation among home orchardists.
