Description: Purple-leaf plum trees, also called cherry plum trees or flowering plum trees, can add interest to your yard or garden with their dark red to purple foliage and abundance of white to light pink spring blossoms. Purple-leaf plums are medium-sized, deciduous trees primarily used for ornamental purposes. GROWING PURPLE-LEAF PLUM TREES Zones: Generally, zones 4-9, with most varieties doing best in zones 5-8. Mature Size: 25 high and 25 across. Growth Rate: Medium, about a foot or two per year. Exposure: For best foliage color and blooming, purple-leaf plum trees should be grown in full sun to only partial shade. Leaves will not reach their full, rich color potential in shade and will turn almost green. Water: Purple-leaf plum trees need regular weekly watering. They are moderately drought-tolerant once established, but may need additional deep watering in summer heat. Pruning: Little pruning is needed other than to remove dead or diseased branches, and should be done after flowering. Prune in mid-summer
