The Plum 'Victoria' & Greengage Collection offers a delightful combination of Britain's best-known plum and the original greengage. With this collection, you can expect heavy yields of delicious plums starting from late August.
Plum 'Victoria' is a reliable and well-loved variety, producing medium-sized, egg-shaped fruits that are perfect for both culinary and dessert purposes. This British-bred garden favourite is known for its abundant crops and versatile use in the kitchen.
The Greengage plum, on the other hand, is celebrated for its attractive, sweet-flavoured yellow-green fruits. As the original greengage plum, it offers a unique taste and is prized by fruit enthusiasts.
Both varieties are self-fertile, meaning you don't need a pollination partner to ensure fruiting. With a St. Julien rootstock, these maiden trees can reach heights of up to 250cm (98 inches) with a similar spread.
Planting this collection will provide you with a bounty of delicious plums to enjoy in your kitchen garden or wildlife garden. Estimated time to cropping once planted is 2 years, with the best yields typically achieved after 4-5 years.
