Opis

This vintage book contains a comprehensive article on the plum, with information on cultivation, soils, tree forms, planting, pruning, diseases, pests, and varieties. This concise yet detailed article contains a wealth of information on growing plums, and will be of considerable interest to both fruit-growers and collectors of antiquarian literature. The chapters of this book include: Introduction to Fruit Growing, Origin and History, Soil and Situation, The Plum, Insect Pests of the Plum and Damson, Diseases of Plums and Damsons, Descriptive List of Varieties, Cooking Plums, etcetera. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly hard-to-come-by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition - complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on fruit growing.
