MINNESOTA AND 
HANSEN HYBRID 
VARIETIES 
I PROFESSOR HANSEN’S 
NEW HYBRID PLUMS 
We propagate them on the Hardy Ameri¬ 
can Wild Plum Seedlings. The Root that 
stands all the dry, severe winters. 
• HANSKA 
This is a cross between the native Plum and 
the fine fragrant Apricot Plum of China. The 
fruit is splendid for eating out of the hand, and 
when cooked retains the Apricot flavor. The size 
of the fruit is about one and one-half inches in 
diameter. The color of the fruit when ripe is 
■bright red, with a heavy blue bloom; flesh is firm, 
yellow, good quality and very fragrant. It begins 
to bear the second year, ripens in August. Its 
value for preserves will make it popular and de¬ 
sirable everywhere. There is a tremendous de¬ 
mand for this variety, and we have been unable 
to meet the demand to date. 
• KAHINTA 
One of Prof. Hansen’s very hardy free stone 
Plums. Fruit exceptionally large, dark red, 
round, flesh firm, yellow, very sweet. We heartily 
recommend this variety. It ripens about the 
same time as Waneta. 
• OPATA 
One of the largest of pure American plums, 
is dark red and the tree is vigorous and healthy 
and very productive. A good variety and very 
hardy. 
• WYANT 
Hardy, heavy producing, large Plum of good 
quality. Purplish-red in color; a good shipper.

NEW MINNESOTA 
VARIETIES 
® MONITOR 
A new annual heavy bearing variety. Fruit is 
large, thick skinned, strong, not astringent. 
Color, a dullish bronze-red; yellow flesh, tender, 
very juicy but firm, sweet. One of the best 
quality plums. Very hardy. Late midseason 
bearer. 
• TONKA 
The Tonka is without doubt one of the three 
best Plums in the Minnesota Group. Fruit is 
large, richly flavored, juicy, solid, and is an ideal 
plum for any purpose. Tree is very productive. 
When planning your orchard be sure to 
include the Tonka. 
• UNDERWOOD 
No. 91. — Another Minnesota plum that has 
several of the required qualities which are large 
size, hardiness, -early and of good quality. A 
variety that D. B. Gurney recommends to all 
plum planters. 
• WANETA 
Prof. Hansen’s Masterpiece 
To my mind, this is unquestionably Prof. 
Hansen’s masterpiece in production, and it com¬ 
bines hardiness, immense size, delicious quality, 
long keeping, beautiful color, small pit and early 
bearing, producing a good crop at two years of 
age and never missing a crop any year. At four 
years old it is not unusual for a Waneta to pro¬ 
duce four bushels of plums. It is a rapid grower. 
We have shipped this plum across the United 
States and back, and it was returned to us in 
perfect condition. 
AMERICAN PLUMS (Seedlings) —Grown 
from Northwest picked seed. Absolutely hardy. 
You may get some interesting new varieties of 
Plums in these. Ideal for Windbreak, Shelter- 
belt, and Soil Erosion Control. Good pollenizers. 
Try a few this year. While they last— 2-4 foot- 
25 for only $1.00, 100 for $3.25. 
This is Sioux Indian for "bouquet” and is 
the first of the plums of the Sand Cherry Cross 
to ripen. At blooming time it is a gigantic 
bouquet of white, flowers of the most exquisite 
fragrance. It blooms just a little later than the 
American Plum. The trees of the Sand Cherry 
Crosses should be grown as bushes, not trees, for 
the reason that you can grow twice as much fruit 
and one or two years earlier by letting them 
branch from the ground, than they will if you 
make them in tree form, and they are much 
longer lived in bush form. Color of the flesh 
green, flavor very pleasant, ripens about July 
15th and will hang on the tree in good condition 
for about two weeks. 
BIG TONKA 
• SAPA 
The Sioux Indian word for "black”—“As 
dark as the shadows of even banked in the 
Western Heavens.” Turning the branches 
of this tree back when the fruit is ripe exposing 
the long ropes of glossy black fruit to the rays of 
the sun, the background, the smooth bark and 
glossy dark green foliage are a pleasant sight. 
When it first commences to mature the skin is 
dark green. The flesh a royal purple. The color 
of the skin and flesh gradually change until it is 
as black as the darkest night.
