Description

This wonderful variety of gage has been recognised by the RHS as one of the best tasting plums with a wonderfully rich, sweet flavour. Perfect for either eating fresh from the tree or for cooking delicious desserts. This variety of gage is partially self-fertile so will grow best when paired up with a good pollination partner - preferably another variety.
