Frost-Friendly Plum Tree
Dubbed the California plum tree of the Midwest, Black Ice plum trees can withstand cold weather up to -30 degrees Fahrenheit! This means your tree won’t die well below freezing, so you can continue to reap the reward of sweet, juicy plums without ever having to worry about replanting after a cold winter.
Add Surprising Interest to Your Landscape
This Lydecker plum tree’s branches spread out and weep over the trunk creating a stunning architectural display to muse over every season. In the spring, little white, waxy flowers bloom against lush green foliage. In late July, big, purplish-black plums with red and yellow flesh will fill the boughs of your tree.
Get Extremely LARGE Plums
These plums aren’t just pretty — they’re big, too. Black Ice plums are the size of tennis balls!
The Black Ice Plum tree is the love child of a California cherry plum tree and a large Japanese plum tree called P. Salicina. The Black Ice plum inherited its size from the Japanese variety making it one of the largest hybrid plums.
The Black Ice is a little piece of human ingenuity in your own yard!
Perhaps the JUICIEST Plum You’ve Ever Tasted
The California cherry plum gives this black plum its sweet flavor. That’s why it’s known as a dessert plum.
Imagine baking your own plum pies and tarts. You’ll only need a couple of plums per recipe since they’re so big, which means you’ll have plenty more to bake and share with your neighbors, friends, and family.
Simple to Sustain, Little to Manage,
Black Ice Plum trees persevere in cold weather making them an exceptional selection if you live in areas where temperatures dip below freezing. These plum trees are also easy to maintain. They only require full to partial sun light and well-drained, fertile soil.
The Black Ice is also a dwarf plum tree, so it will take up less space in your yard. You could even plant it in a container.
Let the bees put in the work pollinating your trees, so you can sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor while also seeing the spectacle of nature unfold before your eyes.
Very Popular at Farmers Markets
If the best farmers like this plum, you will too! The Black Ice plum tree is well known as a farmers market favorite. Impress your friends by having one of the most sought after plum trees around.
No need to rush the crowd and paw over plums when you can pick plenty at your leisure in your own yard!
Prepare for a fruitful summer by planting one of these black beauties yourself. Order now!

Very Satisfied one year later
I purchased this tree 3 July 2024. The tree arrived in very poor condition. I went ahead and planted it. By the end of the month I contacted FGT expressed my concerns and they sent a replacement tree and gave me a partial refund. Replacement tree is doing great and I’m very happy a year later.

Got my black ice plum for my new house First thing i bought,so far it loves me and I'm loving it. Thanks fast growing trees
Not As Expected
When this tree arrived, it had obvious insect damage (holes in the leaves). I couldn't find the insect so don't know what had found it so delicious. I did go ahead and plant the tree. So far, it seems to be doing okay; and, no more damage so the insect must have stayed behind at Fast Growing Trees.
