Description of Victoria Plum

The Victoria plum tree, native to the United Kingdom and widely grown in our region, is famous for its pleasantly fragrant plums, both sweet and slightly tart, with a distinctive almond aftertaste. These plums are often considered dessert plums but are ideally enjoyed raw to fully appreciate their unique flavor.

Specific advantages of Victoria Plum:

• Disease resistance: This variety shows good resilience to common diseases and the fruit is not prone to bursting in rain, reducing the risk of rot.
• Pollination: Pollinates well with varieties like Reine Claude Dorée and Goutte d’Or, allowing for a natural extension of plum season.
• Adaptability: Available on rootstocks of various vigors to adapt to different environments and soil conditions.

Planting and care tips:

• Planting: Choose a sunny site with well-drained soil. Planting is recommended using rootstocks that are adapted to your specific soil type and climatic conditions.
• Interview: The Victoria plum requires regular pruning to maintain its health and maximize its production. Proper watering during dry periods will also promote better growth and abundant fruiting.

Victoria Plum is ideal for plum lovers who enjoy a rich, complex flavor in an easy-to-grow, disease-resistant fruit. Its versatility makes it an excellent choice for home gardens and commercial orchards.
