Blaisdon Red is a heavy fruiting culinary plum with a purplered skin and golden flesh which has a sharp sweet flavour The variety has good disease resistance The fruit is ready in late August and is very good for jamQW
Plums are sent from November until March as bare rooted one year old trees All varieties are self fertile unless stated They need a sheltered position protected from frost Plum trees are quite hardy but they flower early in the year so if you loose the flower to frost there will not be any fruit The soil needs to be rich and moisture retentive but not waterlogged A sunny position will help the fruit to ripen and become sweet Plums do not store so pick and eat or destone and freeze Many varieties are dual purpose so as well as being delicious to just eat they can be cooked to make pies crumbles jams and chutney
Prune plums in the summer after cropping unlike most other top fruit which is pruned in the winter
A guide to pollination groups
Most plums are self fertile so do not need a pollinating partner however they will produce a better crop if a pollinating partner is available For the few varieties that do require a pollinating partner refer to the pollination group
Most fruit trees need another tree in the vicinity in flower at the same time for pollination The flowering time is given a pollination group letter A E There is some flowering overlap between adjacent letters so an apple in group B can be pollinated ideally with another from the same group but can also be pollinated from the group either side in this example group A or C
