with blunt-pointed apex; pinkish red 
changing to purplish red with thick 
bloom and numerous medium-sized dots.

South, but not adapted to the Lower 
South. 
“Excelsior. This variety was introduced 
by Mr. Taber in 1887. Experienced 
fruit-growers put Excelsior at the top 
of the Plum list; therefore home-garden 
owners may expect equally good results. 
The fruit ripens early in June, is a bright 
wine-red, 2 inches or more in diameter, 
with lots of juice and a real Plum flavor. 
If you like Plums, plant Excelsior.
