Notes
'Abergwyngregyn' damson plum (Prunus insititia 'Abergwyngregyn') is a tree for hedges and fruit. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The tree is self-fertile, so one plant can set fruit on its own. The fruit is grown for culinary use and has good flavor. White blooms attract bees, and birds visit too.
Pairs well with Butterfly bush, Feather reed grass, and Greig's tulip.
