An upright plum tree boasting dark green oval leaves and a   profusion of white blossoms in spring. Come early autumn, it yields an   abundant harvest of large, purple-blue scented plums with sweet and juicy   yellow flesh. 'Hagenta' is a reliable and flavourful variety, partly   self-fertile and notably standing out as one of the latest-ripening plum   varieties, with fruits ready for picking in September. Next to the ever   popular ‘Victoria’ plum, 'Hagenta' proves itself as one of the   heaviest-cropping plum trees, with its free-stone fruits separating easily  from the flesh.
Pollination information: Though partially self-fertile, this plum will produce a bigger crop if planted with another variety of plum. Ideally this should come from the same pollination group 3, however it is possible to use one from group 2 or 4 as well.

 When planting your plum tree, prepare a hole up to three times the diameter of  its root system. Fork over the base of the pit in readiness, incorporating   plenty of organic matter into the backfill and planting hole. Avoiding frozen   and waterlogged soil, trees should be planted out as they arrive. If you've  ordered a bare root tree, soak the roots in a bucket of water for half an hour   prior to planting, or if this is not possible, they can be heeled in  temporarily, covering their roots with soil, or potted up. Protect from cold,  drying winds. Apply a balanced fertiliser in early spring to support growth and  fruiting. Lightly prune in summer to reduce the risk of silver leaf and  bacterial canker, to retain an open ‘goblet’ shape and remove any damaged,   diseased or broken branches.
