CHERRY PLUMS 
The hybrid Cherry-Plum, which is a cross between 
a plum and cherry, has the flavor of the cherry and 
is hardy like the native plum, and the birds do not 
bother them. They are heavy yielders and are ex¬ 
cellent for canning. 
Prices of Cherry-Plums except Oka: 5 to 7 ft., 
$1.00 each; $9.00 per 10. 4 to 6 ft., 80c each; 
$7.50 per 10. 
Either Zumbra or Nicollet will bear fruit alone 
but cross pollenization is more complete when the 
two are planted close together. 
NICOLLET —One of the latest productions of the 
Minnesota State Fruit Breeding Farm. The fruit 
almost a true cherry. When canned, one cannot 
detect the difference from canned cherries. 
ZUMBRA —A hybrid containing the blood of the 
sweet cherry, wild pin cherry and sand cherry. 
It is a dwarf tree of the type of Sapa or Opata, 
a very productive variety. Quality is good, but 
should be thoroughly ripened before picking. 
Late mid-season. 
SAPA —A very heavy yielder. Fruit is large, red, 
with dark red flesh. One of Professor Hansen's 
most popular introductions. 
OPATA —Very similar to Sapa except that the 
flesh is green. Considered by some to be of better 
quality. 
OKA— A very compact, vigorous growing tree. 
It is a heavy yielder, producing bright red fruits 
of medium size. Tree is somewhat dwarf and can 
be planted closer together than most fruit trees. 
4 to 5 ft., $1.10 each; $10.00 per 10. 3 to 4 ft., 
95c each; $8.50 per 10. 
We graft our Plums and Cherry-Plums on Prunus 
Americana—our native hardy roots. This insures you 
hardy trees that will stand up under extreme condi¬ 
tions.
