Re: lefty's and plum trees?


What I always liked about them is they are not sour right around the pit the way most other plums are. And they are relatively freestone.

Huh?!?

Those were the sweetest and juiciest plums around here? Will have to

Italian prune. Or French prune. It's the fruit that is dried to make
prunes.

PLUM Tree: I have two here, one ornamental and the other for fruit. Both are underplanted and seem fine Bonnie. How old is your tree? Maybe I

have the problem later as mine are about 6 years old.

At a previous house, there was a Italian plum tree smack dab next
to
the
garage.(no I didn't plant it, came that way, and that is what the
previous owner called it). Didn't seem to hurt the foundation as
it
was
an old tree. Wish I knew what tree it really was as it had the
best
fruit... for eating or making jams. Small oblong fruit but very
tasty.
