Form: Bush / 2 Year, St. Julien A rootstockMerryweather is an unusually large plum sized damson, both for dessert and culinary use. Reliable heavy crops of blue-black fruits that can be eaten fresh when fully ripe, but are usually used for cooking. Yellow-greenish firm flesh, juicy and acidic flavour. A clingstone fruit, the stone tends to stick to the flesh. The tree itself is very vigorous and has a spreading habit. Good resistance to silver leaf disease.Picture image courtesy of Frank P Matthews.Sold in a 12 litre pot.
