In the past quite common in Gloucestershire especially along the Severn. Smallish plums ovate in shape narrower around the stem basin. Skin reddish purple with a bloom. The flesh is green & sweet of plummy flavour with a clinging stone. Ripens early / mid August.
Also known as ‘Velvets’ because of being picked early for transportation to markets and their bloom developing while in transit which might have taken a few days.
