PLUMS 
ON DISEASE 
RESISTANT ROOTS 

Most plum trees are budded onto peach 
roots. We have a limited number of plum 
trees budded on MARIANNA PLUM 
ROOTS. These plum roots are immune to 
nematode injury and will grow in wetter 
ground than peach roots. Plum roots are 
also said not to be so susceptible to root-rot 
as peach roots.

earliest good plums.
