Victoria 1 x Tree

A Classic British Favourite Generous crops of sweet, juicy plums Delicious eaten fresh or used for cooking and preserving Self-fertile – no pollination partner required Beautiful white blossom in spring RHS Award of Garden Merit There's a reason 'Victoria' has remained one of Britain's favourite garden plums for generations. This classic 19th-century variety produces generous crops of attractive red-flushed fruits with sweet, juicy yellow flesh, delicious eaten ripe from the tree and equally useful in the kitchen. The fruits ripen from late August into early September and are excellent for jams, crumbles, pies and preserves, while fully ripe fruits develop plenty of sweetness for eating fresh. Its ability to do both so well has helped 'Victoria' remain a firm favourite with home growers for well over a century. Self-fertile and reliably productive, 'Victoria' can crop well without another plum tree nearby, making it a particularly useful choice when you only have room for one. White blossom covers the branches in spring before the developing fruits take over for summer. How your tree is supplied: Supplied as a grafted bare-root tree, ready for planting during the dormant season.
