To my knowledge, Toka is a really good plum pollinator and is used by monay people for that purpose.  I haven't had plums on my Toka yet, but the samples I have had from the orchards are pretty good tasting, a little on the spicy side. Superior can also be used as a pollinator, but it isn't as effective as Toka.  Superior is sweet and very good tasting (U of Minnesota release in the 1930s?).  Both of these varieties do well up to zone 4, or even up to Zone 3.

Yesterday I planted a Santa Rosa plum tree. It seems that I need a pollinator. I wonder what would be a good choice for another variety for quality of fruit, disease resistance, ease of growth, etc.  - for zone 5?
