Additional varieties may be selected from 

 among the following: Columbia, Duane's 

 Purple, Yellow Egg (for cooking,} Prince's 

 Yellow Gage, Blue Imperatrice, (for preser- 

 ving^) Huling's Superb, Purple Favorite, &c. 



SELECT LIST. Bleecker's Gage, Washing- 

 ton, Prince's Imperial Gage, Green Gage, Jef- 

 ferson, Coe's Golden Drop. 



SMALLER LIST of three varieties. We find 

 it quite difficult to make the selection ^ but 

 with some considerable hesitation, we ven- 

 ture to recommend the Washington, Green 

 Gage, and Jefferson. The (old) Green Gage, 

 though quite a slow growing tree, is the best 

 flavored of all plums. 



A tree of this is worth as much as any other 

 single tree, of which the reputation is well es- 

 tablished here. For a single tree, in his lo- 

 cality, Downing prefers the Jefferson.
