Prunus domestica 'Stanley' is a vigorous, spreading, deciduous plum tree with elliptical, bright green leaves and masses of fragrant, white flowers blooming in mid-spring. Flowers are followed by an abundance of large, delicious, juicy, dark blue plums with greenish-yellow flesh. The fruit is ready for harvesting in late summer and autumn. Prunus domestica 'Stanley' can tolerate a wide range of soils, but prefers moderately fertile, slightly acidic, loamy, moist, well-drained soils, in sunny, sheltered positions. Very resistant to frost and since it blooms later in spring, flower buds are rarely in danger of late frosts. It crops better after a cold and wet spring. It is self-fertile but it’s beneficial to have a pollinator nearby. Requires minimal pruning. Plum 'Stanley' is a very popular plum variety. It’s a reliable and heavy cropper. Perfect for small gardens. Very tasty, with high sugar content. Excellent when eaten fresh and ideal for drying and canning.

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).
