Justin Brook, a British grower, makes the following comments (Commercial Grower, Sept. 11, '59): "As to (rootstocks for) plums, we use the Old English Greengage for all the gages, and Myrobalan B for all other plums. We are very careful to get the true Old English Greengage for budding. The Greengage stocks in this country are terribly mixed; and matters are made worse because Cambridgeshire growers who grow the Old English Greengage, refer to their plum as the Cambridgeshire Gage. It is of inferior quality and should not be used for budding."
