Seneca European Plum

Prunus domestica ‘Seneca’

This extraordinarily large plum is sweet, luscious, and freestone! Featuring beautiful purple/red skin and rich amber flesh, individual fruits can weigh up to 3 ounces each! Enjoy the fruit fresh, preserved as chutney or an amazing fruit topping, or canned solo.

Seneca is a regular bearer on an upright, vigorous tree. It needs a pollinizer and ripens in early September here in the PNW. An introduction from the N.Y. Experiment Station, it has proven one of the best European plums in the WSU Mount Vernon tests year after year.
