This vibrant, fast-growing deciduous beauty adds striking color to your landscape, with bronzy-purple foliage during the warmer months, masses of delicate single pink flowers in spring and crimson-purple leaves in fall. An accelerated growth rate, adaptability to a range of soil conditions and popularity with wildlife are the “cherry” on top of this beautiful ornamental plum variety.

A Fast-Growing Garden Stunner: This variety matures quickly, giving you lush beauty in no time. It tops out at 15-20’ tall with a similar spread, making it an excellent option for both urban and suburban landscapes.

Vibrant Color Through the Year: In spring, clusters of fragrant, light pink flowers cover the branches, delighting bees and butterflies alike. In summer, rich bronzy-purple foliage appears and lasts throughout the warmer months holding that color and adding a hint of crimson into fall. By planting it in full sun, you’ll cultivate the full depth of its purple hues.

Foraging and Wildlife Haven: The Thundercloud Ornamental Plum attracts and nourishes a variety of local fauna by serving as a reliable food source—from pollinators seeking nectar in spring to birds nibbling its small “plums” later in the season.

Low Maintenance, High Impact: With its vigorous growth and low-maintenance requirements, the Thundercloud Ornamental Plum is as practical as it is beautiful. It thrives in a wide range of soil conditions, making it a reliable and stunning choice for gardeners of any skill level.
