Plum President
 £24.95
A heavy-cropping, large purple-blue-skinned, yellow-fleshed plum raised at the start of the 20th century in Hertfordshire.

Fantastic for both eating fresh and cooking, it can be found in most old gardens and orchards throughout England. Supplied in a 9 litre pot bag.BUY ANY TWO PLUM, DAMSON OR GAGE TREES AND SAVE £6.00!

Gage Oullins Golden
 £24.95
Large, yellow fruit with dense, quite transparent flesh and the refined, fruity sweetness that you would expect from a gage. A little less juicy than other gages and plums, they are well suited for storage in the freezer or for bottling. The tree crops reliably from one year to the next, and the quality and versatility of the fruit make it an excellent choice for the garden fruit connoisseur.
