Flavor Supreme pluot trees deliver early-season fruit with exceptional flavor and a rich, sweet taste. The medium to large plums have red-purple skin with vibrant amber-red flesh that is both juicy and aromatic. This variety thrives in sunny, well-draining soil and requires a pollinator, such as Santa Rosa or Dapple Dandy, for optimal fruit production. Flavor Supreme ripens early, making it one of the first pluots to enjoy in the season. Ideal for fresh eating, this pluot is a standout choice for gardeners seeking a delicious, high-quality fruit with an early harvest.

Marbled greenish maroon colored skin with red flesh. This variety eats well from firm ripe to when the juice is running down your arm. The intensely rich sweet taste is as good as it gets in early season fruits. More prone to flowering early in marginal climates, the Flavor Supreme is best suited to areas where apricots are known to do well. A great variety for planting a group of successive ripening trees, make this your early variety planted along with a Burgundy Plum or Flavor Queen pluoot. Good for fresh eating of course, but this one is real special for dehydrating, where the intense flavor of this special really comes out.
• Pollination: Pollinated by Santa Rosa plum, Late Santa Rosa plum, or Flavor Queen pluot.
