Multi-Grafted Constant Harvest Pluot Tree: A Fruitful Addition to Your Garden
Gardening enthusiasts and fruit lovers alike are always on the lookout for unique and productive additions to their green spaces. The Multi-Grafted Constant Harvest Pluot Tree is a remarkable choice that offers not just one, but multiple delicious fruit varieties in a single tree.
Understanding the Multi-Grafted Constant Harvest Pluot Tree
The Multi-Grafted Constant Harvest Pluot Tree is a specially cultivated fruit tree that features the grafting of multiple pluot varieties onto a single rootstock. Grafting is a horticultural technique where two different plants are joined together, allowing them to grow as one. In the case of this tree, up to four distinct pluot varieties are grafted onto a single rootstock. This unique approach enables home gardeners to enjoy a diverse range of pluots without the need for multiple trees.
Grafting Process
The grafting process used in creating the Multi-Grafted Constant Harvest Pluot Tree involves carefully selecting compatible pluot varieties and attaching them to a single rootstock. The rootstock serves as the anchor and provides essential nutrients and support to the grafted branches. Each grafted variety retains its individual characteristics, such as flavor and fruit size, ensuring a delightful variety of pluots from a single tree.
Varieties Available
One of the most exciting aspects of this tree is the array of pluot varieties it can produce. While the specific varieties may vary, you can typically expect a mix of sweet, juicy, and flavorful pluots. These may include popular varieties like Dapple Dandy, Flavor King, Flavor Queen, and Flavor Supreme. Each variety brings its unique taste and appearance to your garden, enhancing your fruit-growing experience.
Continuous Harvesting
The Multi-Grafted Constant Harvest Pluot Tree is aptly named for its ability to provide a continuous harvest throughout the growing season. The different varieties on the same tree ripen at different times, ensuring a prolonged supply of fresh pluots. This extended harvest window allows you to enjoy pluots from early summer through late fall, depending on your climate.
Caring for Your Multi-Grafted Pluot Tree
Growing and maintaining a Multi-Grafted Constant Harvest Pluot Tree requires some care and attention. Here are some essential tips:
Location: Plant your tree in a sunny spot with well-draining soil. Adequate sunlight is crucial for fruit production.
Pruning: Regular pruning is necessary to maintain the shape of the tree and encourage healthy growth. Remove dead or diseased branches as needed.
Watering: Pluot trees need consistent watering, especially during dry spells. Keep the soil evenly moist but avoid overwatering.
Fertilization: Apply a balanced fertilizer in the spring to provide essential nutrients for growth and fruit development.
Pest and Disease Control: Monitor your tree for pests and diseases and take appropriate measures to protect it. This may include using organic pest control methods or sprays.
The Multi-Grafted Constant Harvest Pluot Tree is a fascinating addition to any garden, offering the convenience of multiple pluot varieties on a single tree. Its unique grafting technique, continuous harvesting, and delicious fruits make it an excellent choice for fruit enthusiasts and home gardeners looking to diversify their fruit collection. With proper care and attention, this tree can provide years of flavorful pluots and enhance the beauty of your outdoor space.

Enjoy up to four different fruits or varieties on one tree. Multi-grafted trees have different varieties grafted onto one rootstock so you can enjoy more variety and extended harvests in one quarter the space. The Pluot® is "Interspecific" meaning it is a complex hybrid of 70 percent plum, 30 percent apricot with decidedly more plum-like traits (also called a plumcot). Smooth-skinned like a plum, the Pluot® is sturdy and durable with luscious flavor. It has the chin-dripping juiciness of a fully ripe plum without the notoriously tough skin and tart center typical of the parent plum. The complex, intense flavor of Pluot® is unique to interspecifics, much like a blend of fruit juices where the mixture is an improvement over any of the separate ingredients. One of the sweetest fruits, with 16-24 Brix probably explains why Pluots® dominate the Dave Wilson Taste Tests. The fruit is very high in Vitamin A. Pluots® were bred by Zaiger Genetics Inc. of Modesto California. Trees are 2 years old and should begin to fruit in their 4th or 5th year. Citation Rootstock is tolerant of wet soil, induces early dormancy in dry soil, is very winter hardy, resists root knot nematodes, and produces a 12'-18' tree. By pruning you can keep your tree at any height.
Please Note: Although most of our bare-root trees arrive to our warehouse in mid-December, there are a few varieties that will not arrive until mid-January. If you order any of those varieties along with varieties that arrive in mid-December, your order will be delayed for shipment until mid-January. If you'd like us to split your shipments, please contact us at (888) 784-1722 or orderdesk@groworganic.com. Additional shipping charges will apply.

Planting & Care
Planting & Care
To increase survival rate of grafts it is important not to let one graft overtake the tree. If the different fruit varieties (the limbs) are not well-spread on your trees, use a spreader to separate them. Always plant the smallest limb (the “weakest” bud) to the south/southwest to insure that it gets plenty of sun. Prune back the strongest growing varieties by 2/3. Prune back the weakest variety by 1/2 — or not at all. During the summer, watch the growth-rate of the smaller limbs to determine if pruning is necessary at that time. If the weakest variety is 1/2 the size of the others, it’s best not to cut it back. Prune back the more aggressive limbs. Summer-prune when necessary in order to let sunlight get to all the developing varieties. Keep even sunlight available to all the developing selections. After the third season, maintain the multi-budded tree so that each fruit-type grows in balance with the others.

Limited Dormant Tree & Plant Guarantee
* Claim deadline is June 15th
We guarantee that your dormant tree or plant will arrive in good, viable condition. If your tree arrives in substandard condition, notify us within 3 days of delivery. Please email pictures of the box, inside packaging, the tree and its roots to helpdesk@groworganic.com. We will investigate your claim and process a request to exchange or refund the damaged product.
If your dormant tree or plant has not grown new leaves by June 15th, you may be eligible for our Limited Dormant Tree & Plant Guarantee. This guarantee provides for a store credit for the purchase price of the tree, excluding shipping. Please see the Instructions below.
Important Dates:
- April 1st Dormant trees/plants must be planted in the ground
- May 15th Perform scratch test, if no new leaves have grown
- June 15th Deadline to apply for a dormant tree/plant credit
All required documentation must be received by June 15th for your claim to be considered. Claims or documentation received after June 15th will be denied, without exception. Instructions listed below
Terms and Conditions
We cannot guarantee that your tree or plant will remain alive and healthy after it is received, or bear fruit as there are too many variables in your environment that are beyond our control (i.e. soil preparation, weed and pest control, proper irrigation, chill hours, compatible hardiness for your growing zone, proper choice of pollinator, extreme weather, rodent damage, disease, etc.).
We cannot guarantee that we will be able to provide a replacement tree/plant of the same species either that same growing season or in future years. Customers are responsible for all shipping fees associated with replacement trees and plants.
If we determine that the tree you purchased directly from us is not viable, we will issue you a store credit (not a refund) for the purchase price of the affected dormant tree or plant. Shipping is not included in the dormant tree/plant guarantee. Store credits can be used to purchase any product we sell and are valid for use only until July 1st of the following year.
Historically, 98% of our dormant trees and plants grow and thrive when they have been cared for and planted using our growing guides. Dormant trees and plants must be planted in the ground by April 1st in order to be eligible for credit. If the ground in your area is still frozen solid, you may temporarily plant your tree or plant in a pot.
Potted, non-dormant trees or plants are excluded from this guarantee as they are not dormant at the time of shipment. Evergreen trees such as citrus, avocado and olive trees are not available for credit under the Dormant Tree and Plant Guarantee.
Instructions
We guarantee that your dormant fruit tree or plant will leaf out, if you care for it according to our growing guides. In the unlikely event that your dormant tree or plant does not have leaves by May 15th, follow these simple steps to apply for a store credit:
Before you call or email, please perform a “scratch test” to determine if the tree or plant is still alive. This video shows how to check for live tissue under the bark. Scratch tests need to be done a few inches above and below the graft.
Green Cambium Layer / Living Trees
If the cambium layer under the bark is green, give your tree a little more time. It is still alive, but hasn’t come out of dormancy yet. Check to make sure that it is getting the right amount of deep root water, enough sunlight and that the weather is warm enough for that type of tree/plant to come out of dormancy. Every tree has its own personality and will come out of dormancy at different times. Be sure to submit the required documentation listed below by June 15th, if it doesn’t grow leaves.
Brown Cambium Layer / Dead Trees
If the scratch test shows a brown cambium layer or if your dormant tree/plant doesn’t have leaves by June 1st, please email us at helpdesk@groworganic.com. All required documentation listed below must be received by June 15th for your claim to be considered. To be considered for the guarantee claim, all required documentation must be received by June 15th. Incomplete submissions will be denied.
Required Documentation
- Order number
- Name of dormant tree/plant and the quantity affected
- Photos of each tree or plant showing:
- The roots (tree or plant must be pulled out of the ground)
- The scratch test areas
- The entire tree/plant
We reserve the right to not issue credit for items that have already been replaced. We also reserve the right to require photographic evidence that the tree/plant was not killed by root rot, rodent or mechanical damage.
All the plants purchased from this company grew healthy beyond expectations
I'm very impressed by the trees that I received from grow organic. Even though they are bareroot, they look very healthy and I'm pretty sure that they are going to thrive. I've purchased a lot of bareroot trees in the past 3 months and grow organic had the best looking trees out of all the other companies that I purchased from.
I have my Constant Harvest Pluot tree planted and am very happy with it !
There are actually all four pluot grafts on it which I am excited about and thankful for.
Each one is strong and healthy looking as is the main trunk.
The roots were seeming good. I soaked it for an hour or so before planting just in case.
The beautiful tree has blooms and is beginning to make leaves now March 14. I’m in zone 8a NC.
I’m very pleased.
Very happy with our trees. It's been placed in its permanent home and seems to be happy.
Planted this "Constant Harvest" Pluot 3 on 1 January 2021 just before we got hit with our Polar Vortex (Feb '21) all 4 branches varieties grew out, some by 6 foot, during Summer 2021, still looking good July 29 2022. Perhaps I'll get fruit next year. Nevertheless, I plan to buy 2 more of these. I definitely recommend them.
