Gage Tree - Reine Claude de Bavay
Reine Claude de Bavay has an upright compact habit and delicious fruit. It is very popular in France. 'Reine Claude de Bavay' came from a seedling of 'Reine Claude', which is probably what we know as Green Gage. Complicated, I know. Anyway, Claude de Bavay is a beauty, with very tasty fruit. Recommended. Like plums, their close relations (and botanically indistinguishable), gages have lovely blossom which attracts a range of pollinators in spring, including bees, although they can be self fertile.
We supply Reine Claude de Bavay as a 1-2 year old maiden.
Supplier : R.V. Roger Ltd.
All our gage trees are bare root, so they are only available between November and April. During lifting season, there will be a delay between placing the order and dispatching due to pressure of orders, which are dealt with in date sequence, and the weather. Orders taken from June-October will be confirmed in late October/ early November after a nursery stock take, for dispatch from November. Please consult our planting and care guide on receipt of your order.
Your purchase helps us support a range of charities, which are related to the products we sell.
