Gages, Damsons & Mirabelle Trees

Bring distinctive plum-family fruit to the garden with gage, damson and mirabelle trees. Gages are small, sweet dessert fruits, while damsons have a sharper flavour and are especially useful for cooking and preserves. Choose a cultivar to suit your preferred harvest and available space, then plant in a sunny, sheltered position for the best chance of a good crop. Many trees are self-fertile, but check pollination details for the cultivar you select. For more fruit-growing ideas, browse our fruit trees, plum trees, damson trees and wildlife & birds.
