Malus Domestica – Laxtons Superb Apple is a heavy-cropping, late-season, dessert apple with a sweet flavour and firm flesh.
It is partially self-fertile, in pollination group 4.
Laxtons Superb is vigorous although with a tendency to biennial fruit production.
The skin is greenish-yellow with red flushing and striping.
Prunus Cerasifera – Cherry Plum or Myrobalan, produces red, orange-to-yellow, plum-like fruit approximately the size of a cherry with a sweet and tart flavour.
Once you bite through the super thin skin, the cherry plum will reveal golden flesh and a very small stone.
The delightfully soft texture complements the initial burst of sweetness and a tart aftertaste similar to cranberries.
Prunus Cerasifera is an upright, rounded, twiggy, deciduous tree producing delightful, small white flowers in early spring as the leaves open.
The pinkish red fruits only mature in a hot summer.
The cherry plum itself is perfectly round and extremely small in size, measuring only about two or three centimeters wide.
Often confused with the Sloe or Blackthorn, the Cherry Plum, is a deciduous tree introduced into Britain about 300 years ago.
It flowers slightly earlier than the Sloe, but with similar abundant white flowers covering the whole plant in mid-February.
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.
