S$ Hardy Northern PLUMS 
We don’t believe you will find any nursery catalog with a more complete list of 
northern-grown, hardy plums than you will find on these two Gurney plum pages. Look 
them over and order with complete confidence. 
Headquarters for Plums 
Gurney’s have been headquarters in the northwest for Plums for over 
70 years. Plums have been one of our specialties, and we believe we can 
grow them better. Our plums are budded on plum—not on peach. (Beware 
of southern plum trees for the 
northwest, as many of them are 
budded on peach and will not stand 
our climate. The plum itself is 
hardy enough but the peach roots 
will not be the type that will stand 
our condition.) Most varieties listed 
will grow any place in the Dakotas. 
If you want long lived hardy plums, 
order from Gurney’s. Set 18 ft. 
apart, 130 trees to the acre. By the 
way, plums do extra well in-the 
chicken yard. Here’s a place where 
you can grow a lot of fruit and 
give shade to the chickens, and use 
up land that otherwise would not 
be producing anything. 
ONLY THE HARDIEST VARIETIES 
Besides the famous Hansen’s Plums listed in the column at the right, 
Gurney’s list the best of the Minnesota Plums. Such varieties as Under- ; 
wood, Pipestone, Superior and Red Coat are among the best and hardiest PIPESTONE 
of all. Mt. Royal, the new, super-hardy variety from Quebeé¢, has special High Quality Red One
