Prunus domestica 'Rosy Gage'

The Cambridge Gage's American cousin from NY! You will love the dense, rich flavor and juicy, syrupy texture of this bumptious beauty. Rosy-skinned and yellow-fleshed, Rosy Gage has the same productive yields as most Gage family members, as well as their extra juice and high sugar content - but Cornell University has produced a variety with an extended harvest window. You can return again and again to this tree to enjoy fruits at their absolute peak of ripeness!

Several pickings, beginning in late August, will allow for a complete harvest. Vigorous grower with strong, spreading branch angles. Formerly known as NY 101 Gage. Requires a pollinizer.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • Would South Dakota cross pollinate this one or do I need to stick with something like a Claude Reine?

    We would suggest you stick with another gage plum if possible. Green, Purple or Claude Reine are all good options.

  • Will this do well with the Purple gage European plum? Thank you

  • How many chill hours are required?

    700+ chilling hours

  • Can you cross pollinate a European plum with an Asian plum?

    In a controlled environment where they are forced to bloom at the same time, yes. Outdoors in natural blooming cycles, very unlikely.
