About the Early Italian
:
The Early Italian prune has dark purple skin with
yellow-greenish flesh that runs dark wine color when
cooked. It separates freely from pit. This good
commercial quality prune variety produces ten days
to two weeks ahead of regular Italian.
Fruit is large and has a rich flavor and is very
sweet when fully ripe. It is used as fresh, dried or
canned prunes. Early Italian prunes are vigorous and
are a cold hardy tree.

Please note:
Your region's climate determines the type of fruit
trees and fruit that will grow successfully. The
climate must be compatible with the growing
requirements of the selected fruit tree. Some
varieties will even prevail in the harsher Upper
Midwest climates. Most fruit trees require between
130 - 150 frost-free days. If you are unsure as to
how many frost-free days your climate has, please
contact your local county extension office |
