Zurna is an unusual hybrid for growers seeking flavours beyond traditional plums. Its large fruit combines an apricot-like flesh texture with the juiciness of a plum and distinctive aromas reminiscent of peach. The tree is hardy, shows useful disease resistance and ripens in August. Although it can set fruit alone, another compatible hybrid plum may improve fruit set.

Zurna is a hybrid plum, with peach-like flavour and apricot-like flesh. It makes an interesting addition to the plum orchard
Zurna is a cold-hardy hybrid plum, and makes an excellent choice for growers in colder climates. It has the productivity of the Japanese plum (Prunus salacina) and the reliability of the Myrobalan plum (Prunus cerasifera).
The plums are large, similar in size to apricots and with an apricot-like texture. However the flavours are more similar to peaches.
Zurna is partially self-fertile, but croppping will be heavier if there are other hybrid plum or cherry-plum trees nearby.
