About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
You are looking at ‚Čačaks Schöne’, one of the three well‑known plums from the Serbian breeding program in Čačak: large‑fruited, self‑fertile, and ready to harvest already in August. It is a reliable bearer and works well if you want to harvest earlier than the house plum. It shows a moderate tolerance to Scharka.
Large, juicy fruits with mild sweetness, pleasant to eat fresh straight from the tree, but also suitable for cooking. The stone does not separate as cleanly as with the late house plum.
