Early, Prolific Bearers—Easily Grown 
Should Be in Every Home Orchard 
There are two distinct types of Plums—the Oriental and European. The Oriental are gen- 
erally quite juicy and tender, best suited to serving raw, fresh from the tree. The European 
are the firmer types, used for canning, preserving, butters, drying, etc. The Prune family 
belongs to the European type Plums. For best results, we recommend planting two or more 
varieties, providing for cross pollination.
