The Methley Plum is a vigorous, fast-growing Japanese plum variety that produces abundant crops of beautiful fruit each year. Its plums have attractive red to purple skin with juicy red flesh, offering a sweet, rich flavor that makes them perfect for fresh eating, jams, jellies, and baking.
This variety is especially valued for its low chill requirement (ideal for the South) combined with good heat tolerance, allowing it to thrive across a wide range of climates. Methley is also self-pollinating, so you only need one tree to enjoy reliable harvests — though planting with other plums can further boost production.
The tree itself is highly ornamental, reaching about 15–20 feet at maturity, with a graceful form and clusters of fragrant white blossoms in spring that attract pollinators and add beauty to the landscape.
