Prunus americana x salicina 'Toka'

Our hardiest Asian plum, it is so sweet, spicy, and fragrant, it is commonly called the Candy or Bubblegum plum! An Asian x American plum hybrid with small-to-medium size red fruit with yellow flesh that ripens in August. Toka was bred by Hansen in South Dakota in 1911 and more than a century later northern growers still prize it.

The vigorous, upright, self-fertile tree is covered with white blossoms in early spring, bushels of fruit in the summer, and beautiful red fall foliage. It is an excellent pollinizer; partners well with the hybrid plum Superior.

Awesome

Nice and big with big limbs tied back neatly. This was a bare root that came to me in the spring. The root system was large and in charge! Leaves sprouted right away and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I will be buying all my trees and plants here from now on. My only regret is that I didn't buy here sooner.

Arrived in good condition. Planted and now I wait. Small buds on branches are encouraging.

This sweet little tree was in great shape upon arrival! I plopped it in the ground as directed and it's already beginning to blossom. Can't wait to see how she grows!

Tree arrived with a damaged trunk

I won’t be buying from Raintree anymore. They used to be good but the quality definitely deteriorated over time. There are so many great options online and in-person now that it doesn’t make sense to pay a premium for this type of quality control issue.
