ANDORRA NURSERIES, 
ORIENTAL PLUMS. 
The hardy varieties of tins class have been well tested in nearly all sections, and are proving most valuable 
introductions, succeeding in many places where the European varieties cannot be depended on. They unite size, 
beauty, and productiveness. Trees are ornamental, with rich, light-green foliage and attractive bloom; wonder¬ 
fully productive, and come into bearing at the age of two or three years. Flesh firm and meaty: will keep for a 
long time in excellent condition. 
Abundance (Botan.). Tree a strong and handsome grower, thrifty and hardy ; commences bearing when young, 
and annually produces large crops of showy fruit in the greatest profusion. Large, oblong, nearly covered with 
bright red and with a heavy bloom; flesh orange yellow, sweet, melting, rich, juicy, of most excellent quality. 
Should the demand continue to increase in the future as in the past few seasons, it will soon be the most popu¬ 
lar Plum in the list. August. 
Burbank. Another exceedingly valuable sort that is proving a bonanza to all planters. A very vigorous grower, 
usually producing a crop second year after transplanting. Large, nearly gloDular, clear cherry red with a thin 
lilac bloom ; flesh a deep yellow, very sweet, with a peculiar and very agreeable flavor. Hardy; one of the

dark red bordering on purple; a long keeper, and not inclined to decay; carries to market well. Tree a vig¬
