Cambridge Gage

Dessert gage. A greenish yellow skinned gage that is probably a seedling of the Green Gage. Larger in size and better cropping than Green Gage. First recorded as growing at Histon in 1927. Soft and juicy flesh. Extremely sweet to taste. It is partially self-fertile so will set some fruit by itself. Having another same or different plum variety with the same or adjacent pollination group nearby will help cropping (but not Green Gage or any of its seedling offspring).
Flowering period C
Pick and use in mid/late Aug
