Prunus domestica 'Marjorie's Seedling' is a small, vigorous, deciduous fruiting tree of bushy, upright habit, oval green leaves, and lovely white flowers. Heavy crops of large, oval, juicy, dark blue plum fruits are harvested in September and October. It’s a late-season plum, great when eaten fresh or in jams and preserves. For best taste, it should fully ripen before harvesting. Prunus domestica 'Marjorie's Seedling' is adaptable to various types of soil, but prefers fertile, slightly acidic, moist, and well-drained soil. It grows best in full sun. It is resistant to frost, but needs to be sheltered from harsh winds. It’s a self-fertile plant but for best yield, a compatible tree of a different variety should be planted nearby. Low maintenance plant. Disease resistant. Plum 'Marjorie's Seedling' is a great fruiting tree, easy to grow, heavy cropping, and providing excellent sweet fruit. It is primarily used for culinary purposes, but very tasty when eaten fresh.

Arundel Arboretum is a shrub and tree retail nursery with over 40 years of experience.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
