A celebrated culinary plum variety, cherished since the 1870s.

Harvest delicious, sharp, and juicy plums from early August to September.
Self-fertile and exceptionally easy to grow, making it perfect for beginners.
A recipient of the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit.

Species: Plum
Features: Heritage, Self fertile
Flowering Time: March, April, May
Harvest Time: June, July, August
Flower Colour: Purple
Position: Full sun to partial shade
Eventual Spread: Approx 4m
Habit: Bushy
Hardiness: Hardy, but protect flowers from very late frosts to ensure a good crop.
Soil Type: Any fertile, well-drained soil. Tolerates clay if drainage is improved.
Tasting Notes: Sharp and juicy
Uses: Cooking, eating, preserves

Planting Time: November to March.
Spacing: Plant trees 3m apart to allow for their eventual spread.
Planting: Water in thoroughly upon planting. Bare root trees should be planted within a few days of arrival in spring; they can be stored for several weeks in a cool, dark spot over winter.
Watering: Water bare root trees only during dry spells. Water heavily and less frequently, rather than little and often, to encourage deep root growth.
Feeding: No feeding is required as the tree will draw all necessary nutrients from the soil.
Pruning: Perform structural pruning each winter to maintain a productive shape and improve yield.
Pollination: Self-fertile, so a pollination partner is not required. However, crops may be improved if another plum tree from the same pollination group is nearby.
Pest & Disease: Shows excellent resistance to common plum diseases. Keep an eye out for aphids and caterpillars, which can be washed off with soapy water. Protect ripening fruit from birds using netting or scarers.
