The plums are a medium size, oval in shape, and are ready for picking in mid to late August. Mallard is a good quality plum. Not a self-fertile plum, therefore it needs a pollination partner.

Important - Plums/Gages and DamsonsWe advise the purchase and planting of all plums, gages and damsons before the end of September. There have been severe losses last season on container grown stock. It is thought that the cause is physiological and has worsened due to the changing climate conditions. It is therefore recommended to plant healthy new season stock in late August through to the end of September to establish before the winter to minimise losses. Trees-online cannot guarantee survival of any of these trees. Any planting is entirely at the customers own risk.
