The county of Gloucestershire is well known for its plums. Grown particularly along the lower reaches of the River Severn south of Gloucester and into the Forest of Dean. Some Gloucestershire plums are very local to certain parts of the county and as a result are dwindling in number.
At the request of Gloucestershire Orchard Trust (GOT) we are growing a good selection of these Gloucestershire plums & damson trees. All available as bare root ‘maidens’ on vigorous Brompton rootstocks & some on moderate vigour St Julien A.
We are growing a couple of other Goucestershire plums – Blaisdon Red & Grove’s Late Victoria. These are more widely known and are also on the Plums page.
Discount information – the following discounts apply on total order value, excluding carriage – 5% on 5+ trees, 10% on 10+ trees. Carriage based on quantity – see the Delivery page for more details.
Plum trees are dispatched between late November and early April when dormant.
We have ended sales of trees still available for now to enable us to fulfill earlier orders before the end of March. If we progress well we will make any varieties we have stock of available again.
