Fruit tree

Prunus domestica 'Green Gage', also known as 'Green Gage', is an old European plum variety renowned for the exceptional quality of its fruit. Its round, green-yellow-skinned plums with golden-yellow flesh are juicy, very sweet, and intensely fragrant, ideal for fresh eating, desserts, jams, and preserves. Although modest in size, these fruits are highly sought after for their rich, balanced flavor. The 'Green Gage' plum tree is partially self-fertile but produces better with another compatible variety. Its spring blooms are abundant and decorative, and the tree prefers a sunny location and well-drained soil. This cultivar, both hardy and tasty, is a staple of traditional orchards and lovers of heritage fruits.
