Prunus domestica 'Jubilee' Plum Tree – 12Ltr Pot is a high-yielding, self-fertile plum tree that produces exceptionally large, flavourful fruits with excellent eating quality.

Key Features
- Produces large, attractive plums with exceptional eating quality

- Self-fertile variety suitable for planting on its own
- Sweet yellow flesh with a balanced flavour and freestone stone
- Strong-growing and reliable fruiting habit
- Ideal for kitchen gardens, orchards and productive garden spaces
Product Description
Prunus domestica 'Jubilee', also known as Jubileum, is a premium dessert plum variety valued for its outstanding flavour, large fruit size and dependable cropping performance. Developed as a cross between the well-loved Victoria and Czar plums, Jubilee combines the best qualities of both parents to create a superior garden plum tree.
The tree produces impressive crops of large plums with rich dark red skin and juicy yellow flesh. Renowned for its excellent eating quality, the fruit offers a delicious balance of sweetness and gentle sharpness, making it ideal for enjoying fresh from the tree. The flesh separates cleanly from the stone, giving Jubilee the added benefit of being a freestone variety, which makes preparation easier for desserts, fruit salads and preserving.
One of Jubilee's key advantages is its earlier harvest period. The fruit is typically ready for picking in early August, around a week before Victoria, allowing gardeners to enjoy fresh plums sooner in the season. The tree itself is vigorous and strong growing, producing reliable crops while developing into an attractive and productive feature within the garden.
As a self-fertile plum tree, Jubilee does not require a pollination partner to set fruit, making it an excellent choice for smaller gardens where space may be limited. Its combination of generous harvests, outstanding flavour and ease of cultivation has made it a popular choice among home fruit growers throughout the UK.
