Default Santa Rosa plum

Hi,

Last year I bought a Santa Rosa plum tree at the Home Depot. It came back
nicely this spring with a lot of flowers. Then a couple of weeks back I
read somewhere that you need at least two of these trees to get fruit. I
went and purchased another one and planted it about 35 ft. away from the
first one. Is that close enough to get proper pollination? Also, does
anyone here have experience with this plum here in the Austin area?


Santa Rosa Plum is a self-pollinator.
