Many Plums on One Tree 



A typical branch of a plum tree in Mr. Burbank's 



orchard. Growing within easy reach are Jour or five varieties oj 



plums that are very different Jrom one another in size and Jorm and 



color* as well as in quality oj flesh. Oj course these plums are oj 



quite different ancestry* and they would not have grown 



normally on the same tree. But Mr. Burbank grafts 



dons oj many stocks on the same branches* 



to economize space. Several hundred 



varieties may be jound growing 



Jrom a single trunk.
