Marianna 26-24
Shallow roots. Good vigor, although tends to slightly dwarf trees. Wide range of soil and moisture types. Common for heavy soils that tend to be wet. Heavy suckering.

 

Myro 29C
Roots tend to be intermediate depth, good vigor. Medium to heavy soil. Wide range of soil and moisture types. Less suckering than Marianna 26-24. Susceptible to Bacterial canker.

 

Myrobalan
Excellent anchorage and good vigor. Light to heavy soils. Wide range of adaptability. Susceptible to prune brownline. Slightly larger tree than Myro 29-C and Marianna 26-24.

 

M40 Marianna
It has been observed that Marianna M40 has good wet soil tolerance, with the potential for better anchorage and reduced sucker production. The M40 may eventually displace 26-24 and other plum rootstocks.

 

Lovell
Good anchorage & vigor. Prefers well drained loam soil. Sensitive to wet feet or heavy soils. Very little suckering.
