About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A mid to mid-late ripening damson with large, dark blue fruits and good aroma. It is self-fertile and crops regularly, a solid choice for the main harvest season in August. The stone comes away cleanly, so it is easy to process.
Juicy and sweet with a fine aroma; the large fruits work well on a cake and in the jar. Fresh from the tree it is a pleasant dessert damson for late summer.
