I live near where the 5 freeway meets the Canadian border, and I will be in Seattle Thursday and Friday this week while my wife is in the hospital getting surgery.  While I am away from her, I want to visit a good nursery to purchase a Japanese plum.  I ignorantly planted to Satsunas a couple of years ago and just today realized why they were not giving fruit - they need a specific pollinator (duh, right?).  Anyway, I need to find either a Shiro, Toka or Methley plum for sale.  Also, if you can make a recommendation if you think one of those three is a better choice than the other two, that would be appreciated as well.

Thank you.

You'd have to call them to see if they have what you want, but I've generally had good luck with Molbak's.

Thank you for the reply.  I found my tree locally at Bakerview Nursery in Bellingham, but will check out Molbak's next time I am down there.
