The Prunus domestica 'Marjorie’s Seedling', better known as the Marjorie’s Seedling Plum Tree, is one of the most popular late-season plums grown in the UK. First introduced in the early 20th century, this hardy and dependable variety produces medium-to-large purple fruits with a deep yellow-green flesh. It is particularly valued for extending the plum season, as fruits ripen in September when many other varieties are finished. Excellent for cooking and preserving, Marjorie’s Seedling also sweetens when left to fully ripen on the tree, making it versatile for both kitchen use and fresh eating.
