Merryweather Damson trees are very easy to grow, if you only have room for a single fruit tree (or many more for that matter!) this is a great choice.

The delicious fruits have a wide variety of uses in the kitchen. Damson jam, Damson crumble or even Damson gin are just a few of the many delicious dishes that can be produced from the these easy to grow fruits.
