- Highlights
- Variety Specifications
- Planting & Care
- Perfect for small gardens, cordon plum trees grow as a single vertical stem with short fruiting branches, saving space while providing high yields.
- Choose from popular varieties like 'Victoria' for its easy growth and sweet, juicy plums; 'Opal' for its well-shaped fruit and similar flavour; or 'Jubilee' for its large plums and excellent disease resistance.
- Our growers have expertly shaped your tree into the ideal cordon form, ready for planting.
- These trees are robust, hardy, and show good resistance to common pests and diseases.
- Species: Plum
- Features: Self-fertile
- Flowering Time: March to May, with white or pink flowers appearing in early spring.
- Harvest Time: July to August
- Planting Time: Can be planted year-round.
- Position: Full sun
- Soil: Any moist, fertile, well-drained soil. Prefers slightly acidic conditions.
- Hardiness: Hardy, tolerating temperatures down to -15°C (H5).
- Habit: Cordon (columnar) - a single vertical trunk with short fruiting spurs.
- Eventual Spread: Approximately 0.5m
- Uses: Ideal for eating fresh, making jam, and baking.
- Your tree arrives pre-shaped. To maintain its cordon form, an annual prune is required.
- The main pruning should be done in summer. In late August, cut back new shoots that are over 20cm long to one leaf beyond the basal cluster of this year's growth.
- If the fruiting spurs become too crowded over time, thin out the older, less productive ones during winter to encourage new growth.
- These trees have good disease resistance, but any aphids or caterpillars can be easily washed away with soapy water.
Product Specifications
- Height on Arrival: 120-150cm
- Supplied As: Bare Root
- Rootstock: St. Julien A. This rootstock restricts the tree's height to a manageable 4m, perfect for smaller spaces, and can be kept smaller with pruning.
