The Hollywood Plum Tree (Prunus salicina x 'Hollywood') is a striking ornamental fruit tree that combines exceptional beauty with delicious, versatile harvests. Known for its dramatic deep purple foliage and clusters of fragrant white to light pink blossoms in spring, this tree makes a bold statement in any landscape. By midsummer, it produces abundant crops of large, round plums with rich burgundy-red skin and sweet, juicy golden flesh. These flavorful fruits are excellent for fresh eating, baking, jams, and preserves, offering both ornamental and culinary value. Hollywood Plum is a vigorous grower, typically reaching 15–20 ft. tall and wide with a rounded canopy that provides shade and structure in the garden. Hardy in USDA Zones 5–9, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, rewarding gardeners with reliable growth and heavy fruiting. This variety is partially self-fertile but performs best when planted with other plum varieties such as Santa Rosa for enhanced pollination and higher yields. With its showy spring flowers, colorful foliage, and bountiful summer fruit, the Hollywood Plum Tree delivers year-round interest, making it a superb choice for edible landscapes, home orchards, or ornamental plantings that balance beauty with productivity.
