Angelina Plum

European Plum

 

Fruit ripening time: February

 

A rich flavoured plum, with juicy, sweet flesh. A good all-rounder. A lovely fresh eating plum. Also cooks superbly into sweet deserts.

 

Fruit are small and oval in shape. The skin is dark-purple, and the flesh is yellow, firm and juicy.

A freestone variety.

 

The tree is vigorous, easy to grow and will crop heavily and reliably. In favourable years, fruit thinning is recommended.

 

Uses: Fresh eating, baking, preserves, jams and even liqueurs.

 

Angelina plum is self-fertile. However, pollination and crop set can be improved with a pollination partner.

 

Pollinators: Coe's Golden Drop, D’Agen, Greengage, President, Purple Gage, Victoria

 

Tree Size: Approximately 3 - 5 m tall and 4 m wide, depending on the shape.

 

Tree Care:

For best results plant in full sun, in fertile, free draining soil, preferably a friable loam with good aeration.

 

If the soil is free draining, dig a hole twice the size of the root ball, plant the tree so the top of the root ball is level with the soil line and back fill with a soil and compost mixture. If the soil is not free draining, plant the tree in a raised mound of soil and compost mix, to prevent water logging.

 

Choose a sheltered position, out of strong winds.

 

Water in well at planting, and water regularly, especially in dry spells. Young trees will benefit from being mulched. Apply mulch in a ring around the tree base, keeping clear of the trunk.

 

Plums are produced on spurs on 2-year and older wood. Prune in dry weather in winter, to shape your tree and develop a good framework.
