Oullins Golden Gage
Oullins Golden Gage (Prunus domestica 'Oullins Golden Gage'), hails from France, where it was introduced in 1860. It is an attractive large, golden yellow gage, with a good gage-like flavour. Can be picked early for cooking. Excellent for bottling and freezing. A self-fertile gage, this means there is no need for another gage to act as a pollination partner.
Sometimes we can be out of stock of the smaller rootstocks e.g. VVA1/Pixy. These can be quite desirable for the very small garden. If your desire is so strong to still have an Oullins Golden Gage tree that you are prepared to get the shears out, you can buy the St Julian A option and prune back to the size required. If you forget, the tree will grow roughly 50cm taller so no major drama.
