Sir,
Beautiful tree, such a powerful trunk! Why did you chose not to cutback the branching coming immediately off the trunk more? To my eye the primary branching coming off the trunk is a bit too long and has no taper? I'm guessing this was an intentional choice for you and would appreciate hearing your aesthetic decision to not cut them back more.
Your humble servant,
S. Dogwood
The plums are round and very red, go very well with the pot. Unfortunately there are not many because this species blooms in the middle of March in my greenhouse when there are no bees around yet. And then later on the birds take the few ones that start to become red. In Croatia my students have these plum trees with a hunded plums on them. I am jelous. I will make it happen though!Excellent tree Mr Pall, does this ones plums match the pot in colour, the wild ones around me have either green, yellow or red plums
