Toka Plum Tree

A hardy pollinator with rich, aromatic fruit

The Toka plum, often called the “bubblegum plum,” was developed in South Dakota for cold climates and tough growing conditions. Its medium-sized fruit has reddish-bronze skin and golden flesh that is sweet, juicy, and highly aromatic, with a unique flavor reminiscent of bubblegum. Toka is also one of the best pollinator plums, helping set fruit on many other plum varieties.
