Planting & Care

Produces beautiful, round fruits with a glowing golden-yellow skin.
Its sharp, fruity flavour is perfect for creating delicious jams, pies, and preserves.
Enjoy your harvest for longer, as these plums store exceptionally well in the fridge.
Adorns your garden with a beautiful display of linen-white blossoms each spring.
A compact tree, reaching a manageable size of 4x4 metres, ideal for most garden spaces.
Partially self-fertile, it will produce fruit on its own, but a nearby pollination partner ensures a heavier crop.
Arrives expertly pruned to encourage a strong, healthy, and well-shaped tree from the start.

Species: Plum
Latin Name: Prunus domestica 'Golden Sphere'
Features: Easy to grow, Heritage
Flowering Time: April, May
Flower Colour: Linen white
Harvest Time: August
Position: Full sun
Habit: Bushy
Location: Beds & borders
Eventual Spread: 4m
Hardiness: Hardy
Soil Type: Prefers well-drained loamy soils
Pest & Disease Resistance: Excellent
Pruning: Some structural pruning required
Self-Fertile: Partially self fertile
Tasting Notes: Sharp and fruity
Uses: Cooking, preserves

Planting Time: Plant your bare root tree from January to March or September to December.
Planting Location: Choose a spot in full sun with well-drained, loamy soil. It will tolerate less than perfect conditions but may struggle in poorly draining soil.
Pollination: This plum is partially self-fertile but will fruit better with a pollination partner (another plum, damson, or gage from the same or adjacent pollination group) flowering nearby. In built-up areas, a suitable partner is likely to be within a mile.
Hardiness: Hardy in the UK, but late frosts can damage the blossoms, reducing that year's fruit yield. This will not cause lasting damage to the tree.
Pruning: Some structural pruning should be done each winter to maintain a productive shape, improve yields, and prevent disease.
Pest & Disease: Shows excellent resistance to common plum diseases, including cracking. Keep an eye out for aphids and caterpillars, which can be washed off with soapy water. A fruit net or bird scarers can protect your crop from birds.
