4 BUBBANK'S 1919 FBUITS, FLOWERS AND PLANTS 
New Shipping, Market and Home Plum— " Eldorado" 
368. There has been a great demand among shippers and dealers for a large 
black freestone shipping plum of extra quality. At last it has arrived. "Eldorado" 
is the largest plum ever seen on this earth. No other plum will keep in fine con- 
dition as long, no plum tree is a better grower or yielder. My trees have now been 
under close observation for ten years with never a failure of crops. Fruit black 
and flat like an apple; flesh firm, pale salmon color. The enormous fruit is fully 
colored and in fine shipping condition here with the other early plums and 
keeps in best condition nearly one month. Freestone when ripe; quality rich, 
sweet, delicious. Most of the shipping plums now grown originated on my own 
grounds, millions of crates of which are now shipped East, West, North and South 
each season. "Eldorado" should be placed first in value for this purpose. Trees 
each, $5; three, $12; ten, $25. Grafting wood in December, January and Feb- 
ruary; per foot, $2; per ten feet, $8. 
Vacaville, Cal. Your "Eldorado" plum is a wonder and a winner in every mar- 
ket. I think it the most remarkable plum of all you have introduced, and the 
finest plum in the world. H. A. B. August 5, 1918. 
Sebastopol, Cal. The finest plum you have ever produced. No plum on earth 
equals it. The largest and finest of all plums. E. A. September 10, 1918. 
Healdsburg, Cal. I never tasted such a wonderful plum in all my life. 
B. C. Aug. 12, 1918. 
"Eldorado" Plum nearly natural size. 
A New Hardy Plum— "Cranberry" 
181. A small brilliant rosy crimson plum, in appearance like a beautiful mam- 
moth cherry. About the handsomest of all plums. The fruit is borne in ropes all 
over the trees, the crop being simply unbelievable. Fruit one inch in diameter; 
flesh pure white and most exquisitely delicious. Bipe October 10th to Novem- 
ber 10th, when all markets are out of cherries or plums of any kind. Freestone. 
Keeps for weeks. When cooked these have the general appearance and flavor of 
the best Michigan cranberries but far superior in every respect. Why grow 
expensive cranberries when an enormous and certain crop of far belter quality 
can be grown for almost nothing in comparison? The "Cranberry" is without 
exception the most productive of all known plums. Millions of these "Cranberry" 
trees will be planted as soon as their value is understood. Each, $5; five, $15.
