Wiki Draft

Prunus munsoniana ‘Whittaker’ is listed as a plum cultivar in a University of Minnesota source. The table entry gives the species as Prunus munsoniana, attributed to Wright and Hedrick, and lists the cultivar name as ‘Whittaker’ [S1].

In the study discussion, ‘Whittaker’ appears among plum cultivars compared for germination and seedling establishment. One passage reports moderate change in stem diameter/ΔTCA, low to moderate herbivore damage, and some seedlings producing suckers [S1]. The source also suggests Prunus munsoniana lines showed higher invasiveness potential than some Prunus domestica cultivars in that dataset, but this is a page level inference rather than a direct cultivar description [S1].

Summary source basis

This summary currently draws chiefly from Minnesota #1695.

Featured source descriptions

“Whittaker had moderate change in stem diameter/∆TCA, low to moderate herbivore damage, and some root-suckering.”
