Prunus domestica subsp. syriaca 'Mirabelle de Nancy'

This variety is a hit in farmers markets throughout France; eaten fresh, crafted into preserves, or made into wine or brandy. It is as good today as it was in 1790! Mirabelle de Nancy is named for a city in the Alsace Lorraine region of Northeastern France. The freestone fruit is more oval in shape and slightly larger and firmer than other Mirabelles.

A more upright grower than some other Mirabelles, it is considered somewhat self fertile in some areas, but considerably increases its yield with a polllinizing partner. Not considered a good pollinizer for other European plums due to shy pollen production. Considered very low chill for a European plum - under 300 hours.

USDA Zone: 5-9

Grow Height:  12' (Dwarf)

Sun: Full Sun

Ripening Time: August

Pollination: Somewhat Self Fertile in Some Locations

Dwarf Rootstock: St. Julian A

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • Will this be a good partner for a yellow egg plum tree?

    Mirabelle plums tend to be weak pollen producers are are best paired with a couple other trees that already pollinate each other fully.

  • Can this grow in a pot also the gage plum I have no more land space.

    It can grow in a large container for some time with proper pruning and extra care.

  • I’m in GA if I purchase this now July 26 2023 when would this Mirebelle de nancy plum tree ship off? It says in stock.

    This tree is in stock for pre-order, not for live shipping. It will ship bareroot in spring 2024.

  • would Hollywood plums be a good pollinator tree for Maribelle?

    No, you will need a European plum. Gage plums are the best.

  • Will this and a Mirabelle Geneva be sufficient to properly pollinate each other?

    No, Mirabelle plums need Gage plums for reliable cross pollination

  • Is this a bare root or potted? Will it ship in fall?

    Bareroot and we ship bareroot in the springtime.

I love my tree!

She arrived safe and healthy, didn’t even take her 2 weeks after being planted for her to start putting forth shoots! She has a very lovely size and she gets prettier every day! I absolutely love mirabelle plums so much. I was so exited to have this tree! I look forward to the years when she will bear fruit!

Great Quality Trees

We had always Mirabelles in Germany where I grew up, and I sorely miss them here.
I planted the two trees the same day they arrived in our orchard. Two days later they were greeted by New Hampshire snow fall. Now they are leafing out. Looks all good!

Mirabelle de Nancy European Plum

It arrived finally. nearly took a year or more to receive 4 2 of each different Mirabelle trees 2 as a gift 2 for me one each variety each she put hers in a large pots I put mine in my orchard in fact the first of many trees I plan on planting.
they leafed out and looked great. Then something ate all the leaves and it still looked alive 2 days later new leaves a couple of weeks and there covered with new leaves. I was worried because my soil is sandy clay but I planted it 4" higher than the ground and mulched. They seem to be doing fine. I have a soak-er hose on a timer only during our extreme heat other wise if its raining no water is used to make the roots search and go deeper. So far I love these trees and they made it thru our recent hurricane just fine. My sister in laws trees is doing great also.

Hardy, well-branched tree with ready platform

Asked friend in Paris to compare Mirabelle de Nancy and M. de Metz, but his local primeur (fruit grocer) said he didn't know or care which was which: both were superb. So I added both to my Reine des Ms and Parfum de septembre (a M type that produced its first fruit last year -- a tiny piece of taste heaven).

not sure the plant will survive

The two trees arrived packed together tight with some broken branches but not a single leaf. After a week, the tiny buds seem to all be dying and there is not a single leaf coming out of the plants.
Will they survive?
Any advice?
Refund?
