This book delves into the world of plum pollination, examining the pollination requirements of various Japanese and European plum varieties to help growers achieve optimal fruit set. The author conducted pollination experiments over several years, observing the natural fruit set of different varieties and performing controlled pollinations. The results revealed that most Japanese plum varieties require cross-pollination, with only one variety, Climax, being self-fertile. Among the European varieties, Clyman and Tragedy were found to be self-sterile, while Yellow Egg and Pond showed some self-fertility. The book also highlights the importance of honey bees as pollinators and emphasizes the positive impact they have on fruit set, even for self-fertile varieties. The author discusses the cross-pollination compatibility among the different varieties, providing valuable information for growers to make informed decisions about interplanting compatible varieties to ensure successful fruit production. Overall, this book offers practical insights and scientific data on plum pollination, guiding growers towards effective pollination practices that optimize fruit yields and ensure the continued success of their plum orchards.
