  • Have you ever wanted to grow a plum tree but felt as though you dont have the room? Well, do we have some good news for you Cordon fruit trees comprise a vertical trunk with short, fruiting spurs branching off the side, leading to a much narrower fruit tree that still produces good yields result!
  • Victoria is our growers favourite plum tree and widely thought of as the best plum variety out there easy to grow and yielding delicious sticky plums, theres a reason why its so popular!
  • Opal boasts small, perfectly formed plums with a comparable flavour profile to Victoria (which, as weve established, is a pretty good variety to take after)
  • Jubilee produces sizable plums, displays great disease resistance and, just to top it all off, is very hardy. Where do we sign?
  • Our growers have expertly established the proper cordon shape for your plum tree, so all you need to do is prune your tree each year to help retain its shape. The main pruning should be done in summer, with occasional winter pruning also necessary. Heres what you need to do:
    1. Towards the back end of August, cut shoots that are over 20 centimetres long, trimming back to a single leaf beyond the cluster of leaves at the base of the current years growth (often referred to as the basal cluster)
    2. If you find that your cordons spurs are becoming overly crowded which can happen with more established trees then thin out some of the older spurs which havent fruited quite so well (this should be done in winter)
