NOTE — Most American and European Plums seem to 

 be self-fertUe and produce fruit on their own pollen, 

 but produce better when interplanted with other varieties. 

 Oriental varieties have been found to be self-unfruitfnl 

 and should always be interplanted at all times. Abund- 

 ance is considered one of the best general pollinators.
