Minnesota No. 17 was a plum sold in 1937 by Fruit Growers Service Co. among its large-fruited “Jumbo Plums” for northern planting. The catalog described it as a promising new selection that had not yet been named, so Minnesota No. 17 was still a numbered plum selection at that time. [S1]
The fruit was promoted as a “Jumbo” plum and described as a perfect freestone. The available source gives no color, size measurement, flesh description, or ripening date. [S1]
The tree was praised for production. The catalog calls Minnesota No. 17 a very regular and heavy cropper, and says stock was very limited. [S1]
The catalog places Minnesota No. 17 in a Minnesota and northern planting context, beside other hardy plums linked to Minnesota breeding and testing. It also recommends planting more than one Jumbo Plum and including pollinizers such as Kaga or Surprise in each group. The available evidence gives no direct zone rating or winter survival statement for Minnesota No. 17. [S1]
