Prunus Domestica 'Coe's Golden Drop'
Plum Tree 'Coe's Golden Drop'
Prunus Domestica - Plum Tree - is a deciduous fruiting tree that can be fan-trained (approx. 2m.x3m), bush-trained (approx, 4m. high) half-standard (up to 6m. high) or standard (up to 8m. high). Some varieties are self-fertile (ie do not need a pollinator) and some require a second variety tree as a pollinator. The white flowers appear in Spring, and the fruit, which have a single stone, ripen in late Summer. 'Coe's Golden Drop' is a yellow-skinned, sweet, juicy dessert plum. This variety requires a pollinator - ie another variety of plum tree that flowers at the same time for pollination

Flowering
From Late Winter TO Mid Spring
Although plum trees are frost hardy, the flowers - essential for fruiting - are very susceptible to frost. If frost is threatened during the flowering period, protect the flowers with horticultural fleece.
Planting
From Late Autumn TO Mid Winter
Plant plum trees in the dormant season, in a sheltered position where the tree will get plenty of sunshine. Dig a large hole, and put a good amount of organic material in the bottom of the hole to help with drainage.
