How long until a plum tree grows?

Answer 1

Not long. It depends on type of plum tree, how much water it gets, type of soil, sunlight, pruning, those sort of things.

A purple plum, Prunus cerasifera, can live for as little as 20 years and it will have got to full size long before that.

Answer 2

Avocado

Propagation and rootstock

While an avocado propagated by seed can bear fruit, it takes roughly 4-6 years to do so, and the offspring is unlikely to resemble the parent cultivar in fruit quality. Rootstocks are propagated by seed (seedling rootstocks) and also layering (clonal rootstocks). After about a year of growing in a greenhouse the young plants are ready to be grafted. Terminal and lateral grafting is normally used. The scion cultivar grows for another 6-12 months before the tree is ready to be sold. Clonal rootstocks have been selected for specific soil and disease conditions, such as poor soil aeration or resistance to the soil-borne disease caused by phytophthora (root rot).

Growing a plum tree from seed requires a process called, stratification which requires two to three months, then about a month or so before the plant breaks the surface.

After about five years, it will begin to bear fruit. This method usually won't produce fruit like the one that the seed came from, either. Most modern varieties grow on grafted trees, and their seeds don't reproduce truly.
