The Plum resembles the pear in many respects, requiring 
a similar strong soil, and being amenable to similar manage- 
ment when required in any particular form on a trellis or 
wall. As a rule, however, the plum answers best in the form 
of an unpruned bush, grafted low and planted in a sheltered 
situation. The strong growing kinds make noble standard 
trees, and when well made in the nursery should never after- 
wards be pruned at all. The more delicate kinds of dessert 
plums require the help of a wall in most cases, but when- 
ever fruit can be obtained of any given variety from trees in 
the open border, it will be found superior in beauty and 
flavour to the produce of the wall. The same is the case with 
pears.
