Abstract

The Weatherspoon plum originated in Elgin, Oregon, and was introduced about 1920. It appears to have been brought to British Columbia about ten years ago and was advertised as a superior strain of Early Italian Prune. The Summerland Station has now had Weatherspoon in fruit for two years, in an orchard where it can be directly compared with the regular Italian prune and also with the early sports of Italian, De Maris, Greata and Richards.
