The use of the modern Greengage Plum in recent years has made it quite well-known throughout the world of culinary arts, particularly with those chefs who specialize in desserts. These small and beautiful lime green plums have earned their reputation with a sweet flavor that seems to resemble honey instead of sugar, which is quite unique among plums. The culinary uses of Greengage have led to a widespread planting in recent years and it has since been discovered that Greengage may actually be the most cold hardy plum yet. This large and beautiful tree has much to offer and is sure to delight.

Mine was not a Greengage plum. I spent 2 years pruning & taking great care of this tree. I spent a ton in fertilizers. I cut the top 6" of soil all around the tree & put compost & a layer of wood chips AND I finally got fruit but it WASN'T Greengage! So m
It can be normal for a bare root tree planted on March 8th to still appear dormant on April 22nd. Several factors can influence the timing of bud break, including the tree's variety, your local climate, and the weather conditions that year. For example, another user in northern California mentioned their tree sprouted in about 1 1/2 weeks, while another user experienced no growth after two weeks. This demonstrates the variability in sprouting times. Sometimes, it can take a few weeks or even longer for a newly planted tree to show signs of growth. If you are concerned, you can check for signs of life by lightly scratching a small area of bark on a branch. If you see green underneath, the tree is still alive.
This tree is a rapid grower and a heavy fruit bearer, but the exact time it takes to produce fruit can vary. Generally, plum trees can start producing fruit 2-4 years after planting. However, factors like growing conditions, pollination, and tree care can influence the fruiting time.

Self pollinator means you only need 1 tree. Flowers self pollinate on the same tree. This is an example.
