Prunus 'Avalon' is a strong- growing tree that bears one of the finest quality dessert plums available. The delicious plums are often found in supermarkets and greengrocers and are a great choice for making plum jam. The fruit is large, round-oval shaped with a good strong sweet plum flavour similar to the popular Victoria variety. This tree has a fairly light crop in its earlier years but more than makes up for that with the quality of the fruits that are produced.
