These, by growth PAETIAL VIEW OF MH. BURBANK'S TRIAL GROUNDS -a laboratorii for the study of variation on a gigantic scale 32 LUTHER B U K B A K K and foliag'c, readily show that still more , startling improvements have been pro- duced. The change in characters developed in a California wild plum — prunus sub- cordata — is also notable. Some varieties have been secured which are twice the size of the wild forms, greatly improved in quality and matchless in beauty of coloring. The plant is also ...of larger growth and increased productiveness. Another very important undertaking in the line of developing hardiness in the popular kinds of fruits lies in the direc- tion of frost-resisting blossoms. Mr. Burbank has selected a class of Japa- nese-American hybrid plums which seem to have iron-clad or steel-lined, frost-re- sisting blossoms. He has watched them in all stages of bloom during seasons of the heaviest frosts, morning after morn- ing, and even when the petals would be frozen and brown the first morning and the yoimg leaves frozen at the tips, the stamens and pistils would withstand all the frosts and the trees afterward show a full crop of fruit.
