Plum Rivers’ Early Prolific
Bred in the famous Rivers’ nursery about 1820, culinary Plum Rivers’ Early Prolific lives up to its name. The fruit is small to medium-sized, blue-black with a bluish bloom; the flesh is golden, juicy, and firm, with a free stone and tart, damson-like flavour. Ideal for cooking and jam but can be eaten as a dessert plum when fully ripe. The tree is compact and spreading with a slightly pendulous habit and slender branches; a heavy cropper – fruit should be thinned. Tolerates some shade.
