Planting & Care

Produces beautiful, round plums with a golden-yellow hue.
The fruit has a slight tartness, making it perfect for cooking and making preserves.
Enjoys a longer shelf life than most plums when stored in the refrigerator.
In spring, the tree is covered in charming linen-white blossoms, adding beauty to any garden.
A compact tree, reaching a mature size of just 4 x 4 metres, making it ideal for smaller spaces.
Partially self-fertile, it will produce fruit on its own but yields are heavier with a nearby pollination partner.
Our trees are expertly pruned before dispatch to encourage robust, well-shaped growth.

Latin Name: Prunus domestica 'Golden Sphere'
Species: Plum
Features: Easy to grow, Heritage
Flowering Time: April, May
Flower Colour: Linen white
Harvest Time: August
Tasting Notes: Sharp and fruity; ideal for cooking and preserves.
Habit: Bushy
Eventual Spread: 4m
Position: Full sun
Hardiness: Hardy. May require some protection from very late frosts which can damage flowers and reduce that year's fruit yield.
Soil Type: Prefers well-drained loamy soils. Will tolerate less than perfect conditions but may struggle in poorly draining soil.
Pest & Disease Resistance: Excellent resistance to the main pests and diseases for plum trees, including cracking.
Self-Fertile: Partially self-fertile. Will fruit better when pollinated by another Plum, Damson or Gage in the same or adjacent pollination group.

Planting Time: January, February, March, September, October, November, December
Location: Beds & borders
Spacing: 4m
Watering: Water in thoroughly when planting. Water container-grown trees regularly for the first year to establish the roots. Afterwards, water only during dry spells. It is better to water heavily and less frequently than little and often.
Feeding: Feeding is not required.
Pruning: Prune each winter to maintain a productive shape, improve yields and prevent disease.
