F102 New Damson—This is an improved strain over the ordi- 
nary Damson. The blue plums are medium size of finest quality. 
Free-stone. A heavy regular bearer. Ripens in September. 
Hardy to northern lowa. 
F103 Green Gage—The sweetest eating and canning plum, it is 
just full of sweet, sugary flavor. Large greenish-yellow fruit, 
freely produced. Free-stone. Ripens in September. It is not 
suited to extremely cold sections like northern Iowa. These trees 
do not grow as tall as other varieties. 
F104 New Pipestone—A new Plum from Minnesota. The fruit 
is immense size, the largest plum we have ever grown. It has a 
very attractive color, red with a golden blush. The flesh is yellow, 
juicy and excellent quality. Fine for eating and cooking. Bears 
very young and heavily, ripening in August. Very hardy. 
F105 New Red Coat—This also comes from Minnesota and is 
one of our best plums for canning. It is perfectly free-stone, the 
stone falling right out when you cut the fruit in half. The fruit 
is large, prune-shaped, a bright red color, good quality especially 
fine for canning. A healthy vigorous grower that bears young and 
every year. Ripens in August. Very hardy. 
Fi06 New Stanley—A new prune-type plum from New York 
that is rapidly becoming the most popular of all plums. Large, 
dark blue, prune-shaped fruits. The yellow flesh is firm, sweet and 
delicious flavor. Exceptionally fine both for eating fresh and can- 
ing. A very heavy and regular bearer. Ripens in early September. 
Free-stone. It is hardy up to central Iowa. These trees will not 
be as tall as other varieties. 
Fi07 Superior—This fine plum should be widely planted. The 
fruit is large, attractive red color and a rich sweet flavor. It*bears 
very heavily, every year. Ripens in early August. Very hardy. 
Fine for eating and canning. A good pollinizer for other plums. 
F108 Toka—Originated by Prof. N. E. Hansen, the famous plant 
genius from South Dakota, this is undoubtedly the richest 
flavored of all plums—a sweet, somewhat spicy and tangy flavor 
that is unequalled. The fruit is quite large, a beautiful apricot 
color with very firm, yellow flesh. Perfect free-stone. Fine for 
eating and canning. Ripens in August. Very hardy. It is alsoa 
good pollinizer for other plums. 
Fi09 New Wisconsin No. 25—A new plum from Wisconsin. Ex- 
tremely hardy and a good producer of good-sized red plums. It 
is especially valuable as a pollinizer for other plums. It makes 
them bear better.

F110 Allred Plum—This new plum was named Allred because 
the tree, the foliage, the flowers and the fruit are red. The 
bark and foliage are a purple-red, the flowers are a gorgeous 
brilliant red and the fruit is red inside and out. Freestone and 
fine quality. Bears regularly. It is attractive enough to plant 
in your lawn but of course will bear more fruit if planted near 
other plums. Hardy to Central Iowa.
