Gek is a highly promising Russian hybrid plum for regions where conventional European plums may struggle. Hardy, disease resistant and very productive, it ripens early with good-sized yellow fruit whose tender flesh is sweeter than it is sharp. The plums suit fresh eating, jam, sauces and baking. A compatible Russian or cherry plum nearby is preferable for securing reliable pollination.
