'Reine Claude Verte' is a plum tree with a slightly jagged, round, semi-open crown of 4-6 m in height. As a young tree, ascending stem branches are formed, later the tree widens. The tree flowers around mid-April to early May with lightly scented, white flowers. 'Reine Claude Verte' is not a self-pollinating variety, which means that a plum tree of another variety should always be planted in the vicinity. Preferably, 'Belle de Louvain', 'Opal', 'Reine Claude d'Althan' or 'Victoria' are used for this purpose. The plums of 'Reine Claude Verte' are small, round and light green in colour. The flesh is light green-yellow, very juicy yet fleshy. It has an aromatic honey-sweet flavour. The plums are ready for picking in August. They are great for direct consumption, for making purée or juicing. Hardiness zone 6.
