– Sold OutThe Gulf Gold Plum is a unique member of the Gulf-series, standing out for its bright golden-yellow skin and sweet, low-acid flavor. The fruit is medium to large with golden flesh that is exceptionally juicy and mild, making it ideal for fresh eating and a favorite among those who prefer plums without a strong tartness. Gulf Gold is also excellent for preserves and desserts.
This variety ripens mid-season, helping extend your harvest when planted alongside earlier-ripening varieties such as Gulf Beauty or Gulf Rose. The tree produces showy white blossoms in spring, providing both ornamental value and food for pollinators. Best suited for zones 8–9, Gulf Gold thrives in the Gulf Coast and southern regions. Like all Gulf-series plums, it requires cross-pollination, and pairs well with Gulf Rose, Gulf Beauty, Gulf Ruby, Gulf Blaze, or Excelsior.
