The Gulf Beauty Plum is a top-performing low-chill plum tree and one of the best choices for growers in warm climates, mild-winter regions, and the Southeast.

Highly searched for its reliable production, Gulf Beauty delivers heavy crops ideal for fresh eating, baking, canning, and homemade plum preserves.
This vigorous, fast-growing plum tree features an upright, rounded canopy and showy, fragrant spring blossoms that attract pollinators and signal an early fruiting season. With an extremely low chill requirement of 200–250 chill hours, it is one of the most dependable plum varieties for Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, and other subtropical or warm-temperate zones.
Thanks to its strong disease resistance, manageable growth habit, and consistent yields, Gulf Beauty Plum is a top pick for home orchards, edible landscapes, and small-scale growers looking for a high-quality, productive plum tree that thrives in heat and humidity.

| Fertilization | Do not fertilize at planting. Once the trees are established, fertilize in early spring (Mar-April) as growth begins. Do not fertilize in the fall, which could promote late season tender growth that can be damaged by early frosts. |
| Watering | Newly planted trees should be watered regularly. This is the most critical step in the establishment of your new trees. Please see the Watering section under "How to plant and grow" in our Learning Center. |
