Another Plum With Fruit

Post by Watto »

I was inspired by Miyagiman's plum in fruit and so I thought I would show mine as well. It is also a Green Gage plum but it is not ready for eating yet. Green Gage plums turn a very soft yellow when ready for eating. It has quite a few plums on it, but has just a little bit of leaf damage caused by "cherry slug" which I wasn't quick enough to get on top of due to being away for work.
Hope you enjoy and Merry Christmas.

Thanks for your kind comments.
This tree was dug in about 1995 but has only been worked on for the last few years. It currently stands about 700mm tall.
