Plum Trees 



The Plum, like the Pear, and other finer fruits, 

 succeeds best in heavy soil with some clay and being 

 almost entirely free from disease, they can be grown 

 very profitably. The finer kinds are excellent dessert 

 fruits, of rich and luscious flavor; for cooking and 

 canning they are unsurpassed. 



Plums should be planted 18 feet apart in rich soil, 

 which should be kept well cultivated.
