About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
An old English connoisseur's variety with large, oval fruits in a warm yellow red with a red cheek. It is self fertile and a good pollinator for other plums, and it thanks you for a sunny, warm spot with a particularly fine flavour. It is rather susceptible to sharka, so do not plant it next to ailing trees.
Sweet, aromatic, juicy flesh with a fine balance of acidity. A classic dessert plum that also processes beautifully into jam and juice.
