Description

Marjorie Seedling stands out as the predominant European plum available in UK supermarkets during the late season. Renowned for its culinary excellence and delightful fresh taste when fully ripe, it has become a preferred choice for commercial growers.This plum variety appeals to cultivators due to its robust nature, resilience, resistance to diseases, and consistent high yields. These characteristics make it well-suited not only for commercial cultivation but also for small orchards or home gardens. Growing Marjorie Seedling at home offers the added advantage of a superior flavor compared to commercially grown plums, especially when allowed to ripen longer on the tree. Furthermore, as a late-season option, it remains a rare choice for those who enjoy fresh plums during this time.The fruit itself is striking with its large, plum-shaped profile, initially purple and transforming into a deep blue-black when fully ripe, adorned with a substantial bloom. The greenish-yellow flesh, though somewhat coarse and noticeably veined, exudes juiciness. The stone clings firmly to the flesh, completing the appeal of this plum variety.
