Mirabelles are small European plums traditionally prized for intensely flavoured yellow fruit. They belong within the European plum complex, commonly treated as the mirabelle group of Prunus domestica. This tree is sold as a group selection rather than as a named Mirabelle cultivar.
Mirabelle fruit is used fresh and for preserves, baking and traditional plum products. Fruit colour, exact harvest date and self fertility can vary among selections, so a compatible European plum nearby is the prudent pollination plan while this stock is evaluated.
Our fall tree is grafted on Cherry Plum (Prunus 'Jeffchum') rootstock.
Cold Hardiness Zone: 4
Botanical name: Prunus domestica subsp. syriaca
Rootstock: Cherry Plum (Prunus 'Jeffchum')
Pollination: Plant with a compatible European plum; exact self fertility is not established.

Self fertility varies among mirabelles, so do not count on this tree to fruit on its own. A different European plum is the prudent partner.
