Count Althan's Gage - FAN Trained Tree (Mature specimen)

Raised in Bohemia, Czechoslovakia, by Prochaska, gardener to Count Althan, between 1850 and 1860, and introduced to England by Rivers before 1867. The attractive fruits have a crimson bloom over golden/green fruits, which are of good size.  The medium firm, juicy flesh has a sweet and rich flavour. This gage has a free stone making it ideal for bottling and making jam.

NOT self-fertile, so will require a pollinating partner.
