A vigorous but neatly growing self-fertile cultivar, distinguished by its large, oval, fruits sporting a deep blue-black hue. ‘Prune Damson’ proves to be a regular and generous cropper, ready for picking in late August. Known for its uniquely astringent, rich flavour, it encases juicy green-yellow flesh, making it perfect for crafting exceptional jams. With a compact habit, this native 17th-century Shropshire variety, a traditional hedgerow tree, is well-suited for smaller gardens.
When planting incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole and stake firmly.
Stone fruits like this damson should be pruned in the summer to avoid a disease called silver leaf which enters through cuts. If you prune in late summer, the sap is slowing but is still running fast enough to seal up any wounds. Check and remove any damaged, diseased or broken branches.
