The art of espalier is when trees and branches are pruned and trained to be on one plane. They're commonly found up against a wall or fence. This particular combination has Santa Rosa, Burbank, Satsuma and Shiro.
Santa Rosa - large oval purple red skin with firm, yellow to dark red near skin. Tart flavor.
Burbank - Red and golden yellow skin. Yellow orange (apricot colored), flesh is firm, sweet aromatic, juicy and uniquely flavored. Cold Hardy.
Satsuma - Long time favorite in California. Mottled maroon over green skin, dark red meaty flesh, sweet, mild, not tart. excellent for jam.
Shiro-The best of yellow plums. This variety beats all others in appearance and taste. Luminous yellow skin covers sweet, juicy flesh. A heavy bearer, Shiro grows clusters of plums all throughout the tree. Heat-tolerant.
