Narrative
Type = plum Per Hedrick, "syn of Altham. Altham is an excellent plum for dessert or home use. The color is a trifle too dull for makret purposes and yet it is better colored than McLaughlin, which sells fairly well...Altham is a seedline of Reine Claude, raised by Herr Prochaska, gardener to Count Michael Joseph Althann of Swoyschitz, in Bohemia. It was noted in the English Journal of Horticulture for 1869 as a new plum sent out by Thomas Rivers." pg. 141-142.
