Prunus domestica subsp. syriaca 'Mirabelle de Metz'


A member of the Royal Court of Plums! Soft, sweet, exquisitely-flavored Mirabelle de Metz plums are small-stoned, freestone, and yellow dotted with carmine red. This very old, French cultivar of the wonderful Mirabelle ripens in late summer and produces heavily each year. The intensely sweet and fragrant fruits require very little added sugar to create luscious preserves and baked goods.

While Mirabelles tend to be shy pollen producers, this variety will need a pollinizing partner. Upright and blazingly productive most years.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question

  • Will 2 of the same plum variety pollinate each other?

    No, you will need another kind of Mirabelle or Gage plum for cross pollination 

  • Will this plum do well with an Italian Plum as a pollinator?

    No, they do not bloom at the same time. Gage plums are the best for Mirabelle plums.

  • What pollinizing partner do you recommend getting with the Mirabelle de Metz?

    Another European plum, like a Gage plum. Coe's Golden Drop, Monsieur Hatif, and Victoria are also suggested.

I am originating from the Metz region and i was so so so so stoked to find affordable mirabelle trees! My trees came well pacakged and in stellar condition. We planted them right away and they are doing fantastic, with their first leaves budding, not even a whole week after planting them! I am excited and stoked that I eventually will have my beloved mirabelle jam and cakes in the future! (We also ordered lowbush Blueberries in another order that arrived the same day, which also arrived super super healthy and are thriving!)
I will definitely chose Raintree Nursery for my future purchases!

Bare root but looked fantastic. I can't wait to see it leaf out! Well pruned out of the box!

Received a bare root Mirabelle de Metz tree in excellent condition. Potted the tree in a 10 gallon pot and the tree immediately began to leaf out. Plan to transplant to a permanent location in the next few weeks. Very pleased with my new European plum tree!

Metz and Nancy arrived in good condition, well-packaged. Good root and branch structure, completely dormant. Gave them nice wide holes, sunny spot, backfilled adding plenty of humus. I'm looking forward to seeing them grow, here in Seacoast NH, Zone 6a.
