GAGES

OLD GREENGAGE

Exactly as the name suggests. The popular Old English Greengage.

OULLIN'S GOLDEN GAGE

Ripening mid August, the large fruits are a golden yellow, with an excellent, sweet flavour. The flesh is a fine, pale yellow, and juicy, a fine dessert gage. A vigorous tree that is self fertile, so no pollinators are needed.

WILLINGHAM GAGE

Produces a good crop of excellent quality fruits which ripen mid August, Willingham Gage is a self fertile variety which was selected by the R.H.S. Very good f lavour.

DENNISTON'S SUPERB

The fruits are large and round, pale green with a dark green streak, and produced in mid-late August with a heavy crop. Vigorous growth and self fertile. This variety is also excellent for growing in the north and has a delicious flavour. Often described as a gage-flavoured plum. Self fertile, so no pollinators are required. A superb pollinator for other varieties.

EARLY TRANSPARENT GAGE

A very rich greengage flavour, the fruits are pale yellow with crimson dots, and an almost primrose coloured bloom. For picking mid-late August from a compact, but heavy cropping tree. One of the best flavoured of the early gages. Self fertile, so no pollinators are required.

CAMBRIDGE GAGE

For picking late August and early September, the fruits are small, yellow/green with a slight red flush. An improved selected seedling of the old greengage. The flesh is yellow/green, very juicy and has a really excellent flavour. The trees are vigorous and crop regularly. A first class variety for dessert and equally suitable for cooking and bottling. Partially sell fertile but crops at its best with the pollinators: Victoria, Czar or Majorie's Seedling.

COUNT ALTHANS GAGE

Old favourite, Lovely flavour. Pollinate with: Reeves, Victoria, Edwards or Oullins.

PLUM-GAGE-DAMSON

On one Tree! At last after several years development we are able to offer a family tree with those three varieties grafted onto one tree. Victoria plum. 'old' Greenage and Shropshire Damson, we feel an irresistible combination. Ideal space saving tree for smaller gardens or an ideal Tree for a container - both novel and productive! £40.95 each Only a few - early ordering genuinely advised.
