Santa Rosa Plum. Santa Rosa. If there is any one fruit whose characteristics are individualized, they are markedly pronounced in this one Plum. To begin with, it is extremely early, ripening the middle of June; it is very large; of a deep purplish crimson color, with a pale blue bloom; the flesh near the skin is purple shaded with rosy scarlet and pale amber toward the stone, which is quite small. It has a slight acidity next to the skin, merely enough, however, to relieve the fruit from cloying, which is such an objectionable fea- ture in many Plums. It has a pleasing aroma so pronounced that a single fruit will perfume a large room. Its many qualities may be summed up briefly by stamping it as a good grower, good bearer, fine shipper, good keeper, and in every way a money maker.
