Prunus domestica 'Valor' plum tree, 5 litre pot

The Prunus domestica 'Valor' is a beautiful, fruitful plum tree that is loved for its large, juicy and tasty plums with an intense dark blue colour and a deliciously sweet aroma. This relatively young variety, originating from Canada, is ideal for lovers of sweet, freshly picked hand plums and offers a rich harvest in the late season.

Features:

• Fruit: The 'Valor' plums are large and juicy, with a firm orange-yellow flesh that is particularly tasty. The rich sunshine in the season gives these plums their characteristic sweet taste. They are perfect for eating fresh from the tree, but also suitable for jam or pastries.
• Harvest time: The plums of the 'Valor' can be picked in the second half of September, when they are at their sweetest and juiciest.
• Pollination: This plum tree is not self-pollinating. For good fruiting, cross-pollination with another plum tree within a radius of 10 meters is necessary. Good pollinators for the 'Valor' include the Prunus 'Anna Spath', 'Early Prolific', 'Ontario' and the 'Vroege Tolse'.

Location and care:

• Location: The 'Valor' grows best in a sunny spot in well-drained soil.
• Care: It is advisable to water the tree regularly, especially during dry periods, and to fertilize the soil lightly to promote healthy growth and optimal fruit production.
• PruningAnnual pruning promotes an open crown and better light penetration, which improves fruit quality.
