How to make a plum blossom bloom in two colors

Choose a complex color plum variety

If you want your plum blossoms to bloom two colors of flowers on one plant, there is actually a relatively simple trick, which is to grow a multi-color variety of plum blossoms.

There are some special varieties of plum blossoms. Unlike ordinary plum blossoms, which only bloom single-color flowers, such as double-petaled plum blossoms, they usually bloom flowers of different colors on the same plant, such as pink and white, half red and half white, or white with red stripes, etc. These will make the plum blossom bloom two-color or multi-color flowers.

Artificially grafted plum blossom

If you want a plum tree to bloom in multiple colors, artificial grafting is a good method.

When planting plum blossoms, grafting is generally carried out during the spring period of February to March. When grafting, apricot, peach and other plants are selected as rootstocks, and then the plum blossoms are grafted. At this time, if you can choose scions of different colors when grafting, such as choosing two or more plum varieties of different colors as scions for grafting, for example, grafting white, red, and other colors of plum blossoms on a rootstock, and grafting the buds or branches of these different colors of plum varieties on the rootstock, when the plant survives, white plum blossoms mixed with red or pink will bloom on the rootstock. In this way, you can have a beautiful plum blossom of different colors.
