PLUMS 
Plum trees especially those grafted on native plum roots thrive on rich 
moist bottom lands. Most varieties need pollenizers for best crops so it is wise 
to plant several varieties near by.

-CURRANTS

the Minnesota State Fruit Breeding Farm. It has almost displaced all the old 
varieties. Currants require little space or attention other than the application 
of an insecticide to control the currant worm in early spring. on Per 10
