Notes
'Lindsey Gage' plum (Prunus domestica 'Lindsey Gage') is a tree for food gardens and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil. It blooms in early to late spring, and bees and butterflies visit the flowers. The late fruit is grown for fresh eating and cooking. It is partially self-fertile, so a nearby plum tree can help fruit set.
Pairs well with Crab apple, Gladiator ornamental onion, and Paula Fay peony.
