Damson - Shropshire Prune

£26.00 - £70.50
Of unknown origin, but -+-ªprobably British-++é (according to Bunyard), this is similar to Merryweather but makes a more compact and -+-¬twiggy-++Ñ tree, so good for the smaller garden. Very deep purple fruit with a wonderfully strong 'damson' taste. One of the best, and suitable for northern UK and for wetter areas.
