QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • Hi. Can Emerald Beaut or Superior Asian Plum pollinate this tree?

    Probably yes, but your mileage will vary depending on your environment.

  • I have an Emerald Drop Pluot and a Splash Pluot, would a Flavor Grenade pollinate that well?

    It will likely be just fine. But I would recommend a Beauty Plum as well to generally pollinate all the various plum crosses we sell.

  • Will sweet treat pluerry pollinate the flavor grenade pluot

    Probably not. We suggest an Asian plum, like Beauty or Santa Rosa (depending on your area) to use as a universal pollinator for your pluots and pluerry trees.

  • Will TLOR-TSIRAN APRICOT pollinate FLAVOR GRENADE PLUOT?

    Probably not. Tlor-Tsiran is mostly apricot and pollinates with other apricots. Flavor Grenade is mostly Asian plum and pollinates with other Asian plums.

  • Is the plum “Flavor Grenade” suitable for western Washington? Are “Shiro” or “Beauty” suitable pollenizers? When will this tree ship? Also is the root stock prone to suckering?

    Flavor Grenade will have a hard time ripening outside of a greenhouse in Western WA. It does fine in Eastern WA. Beauty is an acceptable pollenizer, and Santa Rosa is best. The rootstock should not sucker if the graft is growing well and the plant is not under stress.
