Prunus domestica subsp. syriaca 'Parfum de September'

This sweet, highly flavored, aromatic Mirabelle plum from France ripens two weeks after the other Mirabelle plums. Holds well on the tree and can be picked for three weeks, extending the Mirabelle harvest season. The fruit is small and yellow/orange.

The tree is very productive and can be partially self fertile in some locations. Great ornamental value as sometimes fruit or leaves are streaked with white, a naturally occurring trait unique to this cultivar.

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

Rare plum came in great shape.

Just received this plum. As always with Raintree, the tree is top quality, excellent and generous root structure, good branching, primo all around. Of course, the top is cropped so as to fit in the shipping box but that's no problem - I can prune it to get the structure I favor. For plums this is my go-to nursery.

Plum wont fruit

I planted this plum 8 years ago and have not had a single plum. I live in Maryland. Every year I get flowers and I raise bees, so pollination not a problem.

Prolific Tree

Summer 2021 is the third season that the September Perfume Mirabelle plum has bloomed and set fruit. Here in Walla Walla, Wa. it produces a prolific amount of firm-flesh, bing-cherry size, sweet, apricot-flavored plums that ripen during the last part of August to the middle of September. The tree is pruned to 6-ft with a bowl-like open center so picking can be done standing on the ground. The fruit are such a hit that I ordered a Geneva Mirabelle whip in 2020.

Prettiest little tree in my orchard

Planted in early 2020, and despite some severe beating by high Dungeness winds, it s grown rapidly and filled out well. The tree s natural platforming seems good, and I don t think I ll need to prune it much. I ll second the promotional claim that it has great ornamental value; my tree hasn t developed much white streaking yet, but the leaf shape and color are outstanding. This is one of my first European plums, so maybe rapid growth is to be expected, but I am nonetheless impressed by how steadily it s developing.
