The Czar plum tree, grafted onto a Myrobalan rootstock, combines the robust characteristics of the Myrobalan with the desirable qualities of the Czar plum variety. This combination results in a plum tree that is particularly well-suited to varied and challenging growing conditions.

The Czar plum is renowned for its early ripening and high productivity. It produces medium to large, dark purple fruits with a blue bloom, maturing in late July to early August. The flesh is greenish-yellow, juicy, and slightly tart, making it excellent for culinary uses, including jams, preserves, and baking, though it can also be enjoyed fresh when fully ripe.

The Myrobalan rootstock imparts strong vigour to the Czar plum tree, promoting robust and healthy growth. This vigour supports the development of a larger canopy and an extensive root system, enabling the tree to access water and nutrients efficiently. Trees grafted onto Myrobalan rootstocks tend to be larger, requiring ample space for optimal growth. Gardeners should ensure sufficient spacing to accommodate the expansive growth habit and facilitate easy maintenance. One of the key advantages of the Myrobalan rootstock is its adaptability to a wide range of soil conditions, including heavier, poorly-drained soils. This makes it an excellent choice for gardens with less-than-ideal soil. Myrobalan rootstocks offer good resistance to various soil-borne diseases and pests, contributing to the overall health and longevity of the tree. This resistance reduces the need for chemical interventions, promoting more sustainable gardening practices.

While the Myrobalan rootstock promotes vigorous growth, it can also lead to the production of suckers, which require regular removal. Additionally, the increased size and vigour may necessitate more frequent pruning to manage the tree’s shape and encourage fruit production.
