Mount Royal European Plum

I planted my bareroot Mount Royal Plum spring 2024 and Japanese beetles did a lot of leaf damage in summer, so I was a little concerned about my little tree. However, it bloomed next spring and grew vigorously, trunk doubled in thickness and in August 2025 we tasted our first fruit. There were only three plums and they are on the small side, but the taste is amazing juicy sweet and aromatic, very little tartness. I am zone 4B in Minnesota and very impressed with this plum so far.

I am super happy with my Mount Royal plum tree. I made a special request for a tree with multiple scaffolds. I got what I asked. The tree is well balanced tree with 6 scaffolds. Thank you!

Perfect established root system. Nice krown healty & strong tree . Packing extra protected

I was gifted two plums (from somewhere else), and I purchased a Raintree Mt Royal to cross-pollinate with them. The Mt Royal was in AMAZING condition: it quite literally had a dozen strong, healthy branches off of a straight, stout trunk (1+" thick above the graft). It's been in the ground for a few months now and is thriving.

I bought this plum tree last year. Recieved it with a injury. I notified the team as soon as I received it. I just noticed that I never got a response for it. The tree is growing good but definitely not something you want went starting a plant. Which could lead to disease later on.

Arrived in perfect condition and very well branched. Two weeks later it is starting to bud out.

My tree arrived with no leaves or swollen buds. It still has not started to bud out. The branches are pliable and not dried out, but there is no sign of life.

Tree arrived at my home in Connecticut in excellent shape, very healthy, no broken branches. I planted it the day it arrived, and within one week the tree had blossoms and was leafing out. I am very, very pleased with the quality of this plum tree. I will definitely use Raintree Nursery for all of my fruit trees in the future.

My Mount Royal plum tree came very healthy and rather large caliper for only being a 2 year old tree. It’s been in the ground just over a week and it’s stung to life with just two deep waterings other than the day it was planted. This quality is the reason I choose raintree above all others if they offer what I want in the way of fruit trees

Excellent quality tree, Already had lower branches. Tree was pre cut at the right height.

No signs of life yet. Will give it 7 more days and then will ask for another. Hope it makes it

Arrived with large vertical crack in central trunk, sent pics and an email to customer service, received automated reply but no further communication. The other trees in my order arrived in great condition

Quick ship…Concerned tree arrived with no medium surrounding roots however roots were very moist I did notice some type of gel around roots tree had great roots tree pre trimmed looked great I planted the day it arrived after soaking roots for over an hour. Waiting for tree to wake up. Tree looks very healthy will update post once tree leafs out.

was never delivered

The tree arrived quickly considering how far it had to travel. It seems to be in good shape. No broken branches and the roots were moist and seemed to be good shape. I followed the planting directions and am waiting for the first leaves.

I have 2 already in my garden and they are doing very well in zone 4. Ordered 3 more and they arrived in a couple days after in excellent condition. So pleased.

The tree came well packaged and looks in good health. Gave this 4 stars because I need to see how well the tree grows and make sure it survives till next year.

Plant arrived in perfect condition, very nice roots and healthy looking plant, it was put in the ground immediately, and pruned. I have very little space so I am following the Ann Ralph method of pruning. Can't wait to see it flower and leaf out.

The Mount Royal Plum tree I ordered from RainTree nursery arrived with a good root system and many branches. It's been in the ground for a few months now and all of the branches have tons of small leaves on them. I ordered a peach tree from a different nursery because RainTree was out of stock and it was a sad disappointment. That one had a tiny root system and only three branches. The peach took much longer to leaf out and each branch only had a few leaves on it whereas the plum from raintree has too many leaves to count. It really is a night and day difference. It's a clear choice for who to order from in future years. Thank you RainTree for providing such a good quality bare root tree!
