Plum Opal is one of the most reliable garden varieties, & is suitable for growing throughout the country. Slightly earlier to crop than Victoria, this dessert plum produces a heavy crop of excellent quality, small, yellow skinned fruits with an attractive red flush in July & August. The golden flesh easily separates from its stone & has a delicious gage flavour. Grafted onto a semi&45;dwarfing rootstock, to produce a compact, productive tree. Plum Opal is partially self&45;fertile but will produce a better yield if planted with a pollination companion such as Plum Victoria. Height & spread: 25m &40;8&41;. Rootstock: St. Julien A. Please note, fruit trees will be despatched as early as possible this autumn, once they have gone dormant & are in the ideal condition for lifting from the nursery & for transplanting by our customers
