Is a dessert and culinary plum tree which produces sweet flesh plums that can be eaten fresh straight from the tree.
It is self-fertile and does not need a pollination partner, but fruiting will usually be improved if there is a compatible partner of a different variety nearby.
‘Damson’ tree is best planted in sunny and sheltered spots to set fruit and crop well. Therefore, choose a south- or west-facing spot out of the wind, if you can. Alternatively, try fan training.

Small, firm plum like fruits, oval or oblong in shape
Skin Colour: Dark Blues
