(Madeleine Nomblot)
Madeleine is a traditional French dark-blue dual-purpose plum. It can be used in the kitchen for both baking and in preserves.
For cooking pick the plums slightly under-ripe. For eating fresh it is best to leave the plums on the tree until they are fully ripe.
This is a free-stone plum, the stone falls away easily from the flesh.

Let me know when Madeleine damson trees are back in stock.
If you do not hear from us by March you can contact us to pre-order for next autumn.
Madeleine is usually considered self-sterile, but we think it is probably reasonably self-fertile - like the English damson-type plums which it closely resembles.
