THE NEW PLUM 
“Fhoward’s Nracle rer 
THE MOST SENSATIONAL FRUIT OF A DECADE 
THE INTRODUCTION of the ‘Miracle Plum’’ marks an epoch 
in the advance of fine fruits for the table. The tantalizing and 
delicious flavor, the great size, firm amber flesh, combined with 
a delightful color, place the ‘Miracle Plum”’ in a class by itself. 
Invariably, after tasting the ‘’Miracle Plum,’” comes the ex- 
clamation: ‘This fruit is truly a miracle. It is something out of 
this world.” 
Here are some facts about the ‘’Miracle Plum’’: Extraordinarily 
large size fruit, average diameter 2/2 to 234 inches. An astound- 
ing surprise to the palate, flavor not unlike Nectarine, Peach and 
Plum mixed; skin thin and unnoticeable when eating fruit, minia- 
ture stone, meat Nectarine-like in quality. Keeping qualities ex- 
cellent, delicious in preserves, fruit ripens over long period during 
July and August. Exceedingly fast growing and quick bearing 
tree, which will bear fruit second year after planting. Beautiful 
ornamental tree of medium size, foliage persistent, in autumn 
richly tinted not unlike the leaves of a Maple. Can be grown in 
a small garden. 
Now as to its hardiness, a dozen young trees were planted in 
Mentor a year ago. They came through our 1946-1947 winter, 
which was unusually severe, without a scratch. We can safely 
recommend it for locations where the temperature does not go 
below zero. However, we are offering it for such a modest price 
that anyone living in the coldest sections of this country desiring 
it, can well afford to take a chance and be the first to enjoy this 
wonderful new Plum.
