Description
A traditional heritage plum producing small oval fruit with deep blue-purple skin and firm golden-green flesh. Damsons are renowned for their rich, tart flavour and exceptionally high natural pectin, making them one of the finest plums for cooking, preserving and homemade jams.
Pollination: Self-fertile, may nenefit with another european plum closeby.
Harvest: March
Best Uses: Jams, jellies, sauces, bottling, baking, preserves and liqueurs.
Position: Full sun in well-drained soil.
Why We Love It: Damson is a timeless favourite for gardeners who love preserving their own fruit. While the fruit is pleasantly tart when fresh, it transforms into richly flavoured jams, sauces and desserts with an intense plum flavour that is hard to match. Well suited to Tasmania's cool climate, Damson is reliable, hardy and produces generous crops year after year, making it an excellent addition to any productive home orchard.
