An 'orchard grade' is a tree that may be somewhat shorter, slightly crooked, or a bit scratched, or for some other reason is not a perfect front lawn specimen. These trees will work just as well in an orchard as a first or number one would, since they still produce the very same fruit.
Kuban Comet kicks off the plum season with consistently bountiful yields of firm, mid-sized, burgundy/purple fruit. Extra sweet, deep yellow, clingstone flesh is covered by thin, crack-resistant, slightly tart skin. This unique hybrid plum is one of several developed by Gennadiy Eremin at the Vavilov Institute in Krymsk, Russia. A cross of Asian cherry plum, (Prunus cerasifera) Kuban Comet offers invincible cold-hardiness in a very compact, reliable tree.
