Prunus domestica 'Victoria', or European Plum ‘Victoria’, is a small, deciduous European plum tree of round habit, with elliptic, toothed, bright green leaves, profusion of sweetly scented, white flowers in spring, and a heavy crop of delicious, large, dark red plums in late summer or early autumn. Plums are juicy and sweet, with golden-yellow flesh, excellent to eat right off the tree, or for cooking, canning, making jams and chutneys. Prunus domestica 'Victoria' is adaptable to various types of soil, but prefers fertile, slightly acidic, loamy, moist, and well-drained soils. It grows best in full sun. It is resistant to frost, but needs to be sheltered from harsh winds. It’s a self-fertile plant but for best yield, a compatible tree of a different variety should be planted nearby. Low maintenance plant, requires minimal pruning. Disease resistant. Plum ‘Victoria’ is a popular and reliable heavy-cropper, mostly grown for its delicious fruits, and a lovely addition to any small garden.

St. Julian rootstock is moderately vigorous, imparting greater hardiness and adaptability to various soils for plum trees. It's semi-dwarf, promoting earlier fruiting, manageable tree sizes, and is widely utilized.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
