PLUMS



EUROPEAN

Gracious
Green GageGreenish-yellow, mid-size plum. Excellent flavor, semi-free zone. Zone 5 hardy, but does well for me here in a protected site (except for sun scaled problem)
Mt. RoyalEarly in testing. Reputadly hardier and more reliable production than an Italian Prune.
Syverson's RescueUnknown Big Fork rescue. Hardy and vigorous here away from lake. Sweeter, juicer and much larger than an Italian Prune. Very good flavor.
Italian PruneFree-stone and meaty, western Montana standard, the one to which all others are compared. Especially good dried.
Kuban DelightHardy, beautiful, Russian plum. Tart skin, sweet multi-colored flesh. Personal favorite.
Autumn SweetSomewhat similar to Italian Prune, but slightly larger and cling stone.
La CrescentEarly, small cling-stone, but flavorful and beautiful yellow-wash with red skin. 


ASIAN AMERICAN
Pembena
Kahinta
Grenvill
Methley
Assiniboin
TokaHardy and long-blooming period, so an excellent pollinizer for other Asian American crosses. Strong, spicy flavor makes for strong likes and dislikes.
Cocheco
WanetaUnusually large fruit for a Montana hardy hybrid plum. Good-quality, but like all others in this group, an aphid magnet.
