Plums on a Plum

Post by Watto »

The plan was to just show a plum with a couple of plums on it, but as it has now turned out I found looking through a few old photos how this tree has changed over a very short period of time.
And the last photo does show a few plums that I needed to take a photo of before the possums got to them.
I was surprised by the development.

Lovely Watto!
Something about small fruit on Bonsai that just works with me..
One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

I have a few plums that will bare fruit this season so there should be enough for everyone to get a plum each.
