Yellow Egg, Plum (Semi-Dwarf)
Also known as Pershore, this plum variety is a reliable producer of heavy crops of large oval, bright yellow fruit. If ripened fully on the tree (which takes place about mid-season) the fruit is soft and sweet with a tangy flavored skin. They can also be picked early and stored for several weeks. When picked early they will be tart, but when cooked they become a beautiful golden yellow puree with delicious plum flavor perfect for jams or using in pie filling.
Yellow Egg trees are compact in size and hardy. The flowers even have some frost resistance, so are perfect for those who sometimes get the unexpected late-spring frost.
Partially self-fertile - can produce fruit alone, but will produce more if planted near a different variety of Plum.
