Prunus Domestica – Victoria Plum – Half Standard is a classic favourite, reliably fruiting, self-fertile, delightful dessert culinary plum.
Victoria Plum produces gorgeous white flowers and dark-red fruit throughout August to September.
This variety is tolerant of a range of well-drained soils but prefers clay loam in a sunny, sheltered position and is well-suited for all training forms.
Weeds can take hold so maintain a weed-free area of at least 60cm radius around the trunk.
Thin the fruits if necessary and water in dry periods.
This variety may require some form of frost protection due to its early flowering during spring frosts.
Prunus Avium – Early Rivers – Black Cherry produces heavy crops of well-sized, dark-red to black cherries with a delightfully sweet flavour and succulent flesh.
Early Rivers benefits from successional ripening, producing two or three pickings throughout the season, meaning you don’t get swamped with all of the ripe fruits all at the same time, unlike many varieties.
This variety is probably the earliest black cherry variety to ripen.
