The most famous of all plums and our best seller! In late August the Plum ‘Victoria’ produces heavy crops of large fruits that are rosy-red over a yellow ground and have a superbly sweet and succulent flavour. Excellent for eating fresh or cooking in jams and desserts. This variety is self-fertile and does not require a pollination partner. RHS Award of Garden Merit.

Growing Information
Plant plum trees in any well drained soil in a sheltered, sunny position. Prior to planting, incorporate plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost into the planting hole and drive the stake into the ground to support the tree. Staking after planting may result in damage to the root ball. Plant fruit trees at their original soil level and firm them into the ground. Fasten the tree to the stake using a tree tie, and water well.
