Fruit tree

Prunus domestica 'Blue Damson' is an ancient and very hardy plum tree, known for its small, dark blue plums with thick skin and firm, tangy greenish-yellow flesh. These fruits are particularly suitable for processing, particularly for jams, jellies, sauces, and preserves, thanks to their intense flavor and high pectin content. The 'Blue Damson' plum tree produces generous and regular fruit in late summer, even in difficult climatic conditions. Self-fertile, it fruits without requiring another variety nearby, making it suitable for small gardens. This cultivar is also appreciated for its natural disease resistance and ease of cultivation, making it a safe and productive choice for lovers of multi-purpose plums.
