The temperature got down to 17 F one night and I lost the tip blooms of one branch. I was surprised I did not lose them all.
Clark FYI that was last years picture. We don’t have any blooms at all yet. Normally by 1 April we do. Been a long cold year so far.
Hmm I better look at my Japanese plums again
Yesterday, I noticed the following might flower:
Blackpearl
Santa Rosa
Laroda
Purple Heart
Superior
Williams’ Pride
Just some highlights I couldn’t help but notice. Flowers = fruit. I hope I get fruit!
After 4 years, my huge Beauty plum tree still has no blooms. What gives, man?
Puget Gold Apricot Blossoms a few weeks ago, the majority of them are baby fruits now. Thank you Bumble bees!
Caught yellow handed!
I’m convinced the weather gods hate me. 25 degrees with very hard frost this morning… Say goodbye to my blooms.
I feel your pain… however, the only things that have really bloomed is the Toka Plum and another plum I have… It has been a miserable April. 24 here this morning with heavy frost…
Very sorry to hear that. 25F at bloom time is horrible. This spring weather has not been kind to many of us.
Nice! Mine bloomed here April 10th last year. Not even swelling yet this year.
I have completely lost track of which cultivars I planted. Plums are in full bloom and pears are about to burst.
