With a proper selection, fruit may be gathered from June to September. " It is a type entirely distinct from our native sorts, and possesses many qualities superior to either the famous California or the European varieties; the tree is a rapid, vigorous and symmetrical grower, having large, dark green foliage, which makes it very attractive ; it is entirely thorn- • less, the limbs being as smooth and even as those of the peach. It is a very early and abundant bearer, often producing profitable crops the second or third year after transplant- ing ; the fruit is large and fine, pos- sessing many delicate aromatic flav- ors notfound in any of the American or European Plums. For home uses, no other Plum possesses as many good qualities as do those of this type, and, being a splendid shipper, it is a very popular and profitable market sort.
