THE FAMOUS HANSEN 
HYBRID-CHERRY 
PLUMS 
To my mind, this is unquestionably 
Prof. Hansen’s masterpiece in production, 
and it combines 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 produce 
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. 
* WAN ETA PLUM 
PROF. HANSEN’S MASTERPIECE 
An Acre of Plums Beats 
Four Acres of Wheat 
The Hardiest and Heaviest 
Bearing Plums You Can Grow — 
BEST FOR THE NORTHWEST 
ASSINIBOIN —This red plum is probably 
the hardiest and best producing of any that will 
stand the climates of the extreme North. 
The flesh is yellow and juicy. The skin is thin 
and light red in color. The size is large. We 
have never had enough Assiniboin to supply the 
demand. Order Early. 
*CREE—Heavy bearing, extra hardy plum of 
high quality. Fruit is large, red, very early 
bearer. Hardy as far north as you wish to plant. 
CHERISOTA—A hardy Sandcherry Hybrid 
that bears abundantly of large, dark red plums 
of high quality. It fruits “in-between” seasons 
and fills a much needed place between the early 
and late plums. It is beautiful in bloom, hardy, 
and very productive. 
4HANSKA —A fragrant,'tasty Apricot Plum. 
Excellent eaten fresh and in canning it retains 
that apricot flavor. A heavy bearer of quality 
fruit. Bright red with a heavy bloom. Bears 
the year after planting and ripens in August. 
We produce thousands of Hanska Plums and 
never have had enough. Order Early. 
4KAGA—A sister to Hanska and if that is 
possible—a better flavor. You can’t go wrong 
with Kaga. Eat one, dead ripe, from the tree 
and you will pronounce it the best flavored 
plum you ever ate. It is a good bearer, hardy, 
and in big demand. Plant Kaga this year. You 
will be glad you did. 
THE LAW of Supply and Demand 
has not yet been repealed. We have a 
HUNDRED THOUSAND PLUM TREES. 
Nature was kind to us in 1937. 
A good Supply means Lower Prices.

Big Kahinta Plum 
4KAHINTA—A sister of Waneta— One of 
Prof. Hansen’s very hardy free stone Plums. 
Fruit exceptionally large, dark red, round, flesh 
firm, yellow, very sweet. It ripens about the 
same time as Waneta. 
*OPATA —Earliest of All —This is the first 
plum of the Sand Cherry Cross to ripen. At 
blooming time it is a gigantic bouquet of white 
flowers of the most exquisite fragrance. The trees. 
should be grown as bushes, because you can 
grow twice as much fruit and one or two years 
earlier. They are much longer lived in bush 
form. Color of the flesh green, flavor very plea¬ 
sant, ripens about July 15th and will hang on 
the tree in good condition for about two weeks. 
^PSAPA—The Black Plum —“As dark as the 
shadows of eve 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 back¬ 
ground, the smooth bark and glossy dark green 
foliage are a pleasant sight. The flesh is a royal 
purple. The color of the skin and flesh gradually 
change until it is as black as the darkest night. 
(See front cover for colored picture.) 
TOKA —The nicest looking tree, erect, strong, 
stocky growth, early, heavy bearer. Skin rich 
dark orange red, mottled with orange dots, 
covered with light lilac bloom. Flesh rich orange 
red, firm. Pit free. Sauce has the rich Chinese 
apricot flavor, which is superior to ordinary 
California plums. 
YUTECA PLUM— Yuteca (Sioux Indian for 
“to refresh”). Size very large, quality good. A 
choice early and productive native plum. 
*WASTESA —(Sioux Indian name for “de¬ 
licious”) . Large, almost free stone, excellent. 
It is the best in quality of all the pure native 
seedlings. Wastesa is a seedling of Wyant, one 
of the best native plums of northern Iowa.
