All are Prof. Hansen’s new hardy varieties and certainly are best for severe 
climates. These are well worth planting as ornamental as well as fruit bearing 
trees. They have good foliage and form, and very beautiful large rose-pink 
flowers real early in the spring before there are any leaves to conceal them. 
PLUMS

Lombard Superior Underwood 
Plums thrive in rich moist bottom lands, or even quite wet soils. 
Surprise is a pure American variety of splendid quality for all purposes, 
and valuable especially as a pollinizer for the hybrid varieties. 
Underwood, Superior, and Ember are splendid large new hybrid varieties 
from the Minnesota Station. All have very small seeds and high quality, but 
will not pollinate one another. To secure pollinization, plant trees of a native 
variety like Surprise, or another type of hybrid such as Toka, among them 
as pollinizers in the proportion of 1 or more to 6 or 8 of the trees to be pollinated. 
Toka itself is one of the very best plums and has a pronounced fragrance 
and apricot flavor. 
Sapa and Oka are hybrids of the Western Sand Cherry produced by Prof. 
Hansen and are dwarf trees which bear at any size. The fruit is of medium 
size, has purple flesh, a very small pit, and is splendid for canning. 
German Prune, Lombard, and Moors Arctic are European or Blue Plums 
which should be planted in protected places.
