Gages
A selection of Gage trees are offered for sale. Though they are the sweetest of the plums they are a distinct group. Most Gages ripen during August. When ripe they are often green, hence the name Greengage, but can be different colours. The different Gage trees for sale are detailed below.
All Gages are available bare-rooted as ‘maidens’ on moderate vigour St Julien A.
Discount information: 5% on 5+ trees, 10% on 10+ trees. Delivery cost: based on quantity ordered. See the How to Order page for more details.
Gage trees are dispatched between early December and late March when dormant.
We have now updated our availability for winter 2025-26. You are welcome to advance order. We will then be in contact to arrange delivery or collection with dormancy through the winter months.
