Am looking to buy a fan trained plum - will just one be OK or will I need more to pollinate? Have been told that a Victoria would probably self pollinate but are there any others?
Thanks for your help - maybe I will try a shrub!

Over the last couple of years there has been a problem with fan-trained plums. Many new purchases have failed due to a problem with bacterial canker although single stemmed subjects do not seem to be troubled. Perhaps try something else?

Czar. Majorie's Seedling (keeps very well). Blue Tit. Early Laxton. Victoria. All self pollinating. I think pollination is better with two trees though.
