Plum ‘Victoria’ & ‘Czar’ Duo Tree – Now everyone can grow fruit trees in the minimum of space! These incredible duo fruit trees have been meticulously grafted by highly skilled nurserymen, to create 2 different trees growing on one rootstock! What’s more, the rootstocks are dwarfing meaning that your trees will always remain compact! You will get 2 different varieties of fruit from 1 tree so are perfect for anyone who loves the idea of picking their own home-grown fresh fruit but has limited space. Each of the varieties will produce bumper crops of delicious full-sized fruit! Because they are already trained into a V shape, they are perfect for growing up a wall.
Plum ‘Victoria’ – Named in honour of the much-loved British queen, ‘Victoria’ Plum is the UK’s favourite plum variety by a mile and deservedly so! The delicious fruits are ready to pick each July and taste simply mouth-watering when eaten straight from the tree. With the remaining fruit you can make jams and preserves, and, of course, eat them stewed with custard!
Plum ‘Czar’ – This popular variety boasts a display of pretty, dark-blue fruits that look remarkable when ripening on trees around August each year. The delicious fruits are soon followed by attractive and fragrant white blossoms, growing to create a spectacle in the summer. The fruits can be left on the tree to mature even longer, obtaining a dark and richer colour, while softening in flavour and gaining a certain sweetness.
You can plant this in the garden with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come. Supplied as grower-quality bare-root duo fruit tree with two varieties grafted on to dwarfing rootstocks.
Care Information
- Apply a slow-release fertiliser such as blood fish and bone in early spring, and mulch to retain moisture.
- Drape netting over cherry trees to protect the fruit from birds.
- Water regularly, and don’t let the soil dry out if planted in pots.
- Stone fruit should not be pruned during winter, to minimise the risk of infection – early summer is the ideal time. Established trees don’t require radical pruning, just take off any diseased, dying and damaged branches, (the three Ds). Look at the overall shape and aim for an open structure of branches and remove any that cross over so they don’t damage each other.
- Hang wasp traps in trees and harvest crops as soon as they ripen. Avoid leaving windfalls or over-ripe fruit on the ground.
- Don’t forget the tree guards as rabbits can strip the bark overnight.
