Planting & Care

A cherished French heritage variety that yields a large crop of beautiful golden fruits.
Wonderfully versatile, with a unique tangy-sweet taste when fresh and the perfect tartness for pies, sauces, and excellent jam.
Harvest your crop in late September.
Grown on SJA rootstock, which limits the tree's size to make it ideal for average gardens.
Partially self-fertile (Pollination Group 3), it can fruit alone but yields improve with a nearby pollination partner.
Supplied as a young tree, professionally pruned before dispatch to encourage strong, bushy growth.

Species: Plum (Prunus domestica)
Features: Heavy cropper, Heritage
Taste: Sweet and tangy eaten fresh, with a tartness that lends itself well to culinary exploits.
Uses: Eating, Making Jams
Flowering Time: April, May
Harvest Time: September
Pollination: Pollination Group 3. Partially self-fertile. Yields improve with another plum, damson, mirabelle, or gage from a compatible pollination group flowering nearby.
Position: Full sun
Hardiness: Hardy. May require some protection from very late frosts as this can damage the flowers and reduce the fruit yield for that year.
Soil: Prefers well-drained, loamy soils but will tolerate less than perfect conditions.
Pest & Disease: Good resistance to the main pests and diseases for plums.

Planting Time: Can be planted year-round.
Watering: Water in thoroughly when planting. For bare root trees, you only need to water again during dry spells.
Feeding: No feeding is required.
Pruning: Some structural pruning should be done each winter to ensure your tree maintains a productive shape, improves yields, and prevents disease.
Pest & Disease Care: Aphids and caterpillars can be washed away with soapy water. Protect fruit from birds with netting. Reduce the risk of bacterial canker by pruning to improve airflow and removing rotting organic matter nearby.
