Fill in the details below and we will let you know when Merryweather damson trees are back in stock.
Merryweather is a large vigorous tree, which tends to be spreading rather than vertical in its growth like most damsons. It is also more precocious than other damsons, and you may get a crop from trees which are 3-4 years old.
Like most damsons, Merryweather tolerates wet and cold situations and is resistant to silverleaf.
