8 — Gcoigeson, 6 years uld. 



A very handsome, large round-cordate plum, usually lop-sided ; 

 orange, thinly overlaid with mottled red, so as to have a yellowish 

 red appearance, or, in well-colored specimens, deep cherry-red 

 with yello\v specks; flesh yellow, soft and juicy (not a good 

 keeper), not stringy, with a very delicious, slightly acid, peachy 

 flavor ; skin somewhat sour ; cling. Very late. I know^ the fruit only 

 from specimens sent at two or three different times by Luther Bur- 

 bank. To my taste, these specimens have been the best in qualit}^ 

 of all Japanese plums, although Mr. Burbank regards it as inferior 

 in this respect to Wickson (which see). Seedling of Satsuma.
