So I have some an ume 'Shiro kaga' from which I started cuttings from the other year. Two survived from the attempt of maybe 30 cuttings. It looks like I have the same result this year so far.
I'll be keeping track of my ume in this thread.
Anyways after posting an image of one of my cuttings on @bonhe 's thread, the identity of one of my cuttings is found questionable. I was pretty certain it was ume, but not so sure now.
Here are pictures of the two cuttings from the same batch side by side. The one in question has the smaller prettier leaves. Possibly some sport or entirely different prunus that got mixed up? Perhaps I'll have to wait and see.
On the one I'm sure is ume, looks like there flower buds? The underside of the leaves feel a bit rough to me from the veins. Perhaps I just need more experience touching the leaves. @Brian Van Fleet
