Description

A beautiful old British heritage tree with attractive green fruits and reputedly the best flavour of any plum family variety - plums how they used to taste!
Victorian fruit expert Robert Hogg describes Old Green Gage as "tender, melting and very juicy, with a rich, sugary and most delicious flavour" - and he would know.
Introduced from France in the 18th century
On the RHS' Plants for Pollinators list for its beautiful white, nectar rich blossom
A reliable cropper with a late harvest time - ready to pick from August to September
Max size H4m x W4m - SJA Rootstock Rootstocks restrict the size of a tree to make it more suited for an average gardenMORE
Not self fertile - Pollination Group 3 Requires pollination by another plum, damson, mirabelle or gage tree within a mile's radius. They need to flower at the same time. Plums in the same pollination group, or one either side, can pollinate each other. In built up areas it is unlikely that there won't be a suitable pollination partner within a mileMORE
Our potted trees are supplied in EcoPots™. Eco pots use 70% less plastic and are fully recyclable, unlike normal single use pots. They flex and so produce less root spiralling and travel better in the post.MORE
Our trees are usually between 18 and 36 months old at the time of dispatch.
Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming "leggy", and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
