Late Transparent Gage

Late Transparent
  • Self-fertility: Not self-fertile
  • Flowering group: 3

Late Transparent Gage is well-named - it ripens very late in the plum season, towards the end of September, and it has a translucent yellow flesh.

As with all the transparent gages this plum is particularly sweet. If trained as a fan across a south-facing wall you should be able to enjoy a crop of exceptionally sweet plums.
