Some months ago, the editor received an inquiry from William A. Letsinger, of Sacoxie, Missouri, concerning the value of the Yellow Kroosen or Yellow Kroosje plum as a dwarfing rootstock for peach or plum. The request for information was published in the last issue of Fruit Var. & Hort. Digest. Since then, we received the following three responses: The Kroosjes plum ( Prunus domestica) is of Dutch origin, and occurs in two forms - Kroosjes Yellow and Kroosjes Blue. The former is the preferred one. Both are propagated by layering, but not with best results.
