The 'Victoria' Plum Half Standard tree is a distinctive and immensely popular variety, particularly in the UK, prized for its abundant and delectable fruits. It is characterized by a strong central trunk, boasting a clear stem of approximately 1 meter before branching out to form a well-rounded canopy, suitable for smaller gardens due to its compact nature.

The tree produces large, sweet, and juicy plums that are versatile, being used in cooking, baking, and preserving, besides being delightful when eaten fresh. The fruits are typically reddish-yellow and are known for their exceptional flavor, making them a favorite among gardeners and chefs alike.

The 'Victoria' Plum is self-fertile, implying that it does not require another tree to produce fruit, a feature that makes it an excellent choice for solitary planting. It is also known for its robustness and resilience, able to withstand various environmental conditions, making it a reliable fruit tree.

This variety blooms with beautiful white flowers in the spring, adding an aesthetic value to gardens. It usually starts to fruit from late August to September, offering a generous yield. The reliability, productivity, and dual purpose of the 'Victoria' Plum Half Standard make it an invaluable addition to many gardens.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
