Hi guys thanks for the feedback. I will start the quest for an appropriate pot. Have several large unglazed big pots but would like to get something a bit special.
Hi Kirky ,somehow have found the clip Symon referred to. Luckily the more competent in the house uploaded it. Hope it helps.
Cheers John.

Hi Guys! Yes that's the vid. I can't recommend it enough. I spent years cutting back to two buds constantly and getting nowhere. Once you have tried the method and get a better feel for how plums grow I recommend varying your approach to suit where your tree is up to.

Unfortunately a watering system failure killed my best plum last summer...I can't bring myself to empty the pot if it's dead skeleton
