In more than 150 varieties of plums 1 have tested for home use, Date Prune (Coates) and American Mirabelle stand highest of all. Italian Prune and, to a less extent, German Prune are tender. Grafted onto seedling plumcherries the Italian mostly froze out two years ago, but on Winnipeg, like Burton, it came through. I think if one had for understock either Northern, Bounty or Assiniboine, and porcupine-grafted them (scions stuck into sides of branches) all of the prune type and especially Imperial Epincuse would thrive readily.
