Gras Ameliorat European Plum

Prunus domestica ‘Gras Ameliorat’

Gras Ameliorat is a delightful European plum that ripens in mid-September in Ithaca, NY. It is about the size of a golf ball, and definitely worth a taste! This plum is not only sweet but also cold-hardy and resistant to bacterial spots. Its vivid red/purple over yellow skin and yellow flesh make it a mouth-watering treat. Gras Ameliorat was created in Romania and is quite popular there. However, it’s important to note that it is not compatible with Asian plums for cross-pollination, but it can be paired nicely with most European plums. Don’t miss out on this delicious and unique taste experience!
