Our plum tree is in bloom. We planted this tree last spring. Last summer it had two flowers, but no fruits. I was humbly thinking that we wouldn’t have any plum flowers this year – this tree probably doesn’t like it here, in our garden, and won’t thrive. 🙂
On Saturday I finally tried to count the flowers and buds the tree has… there was over a hundred opened flowers and several dozen flower buds. This is a self-pollinating tree. It would be great to have two plum fruits this year! 🙂
The wind was blowing nicely…. But it’s been a very warm day.
A fairly tiny tree.
When I first saw all the flower buds I could hardly believe what I was seeing. 🙂 So, let’s wait and see what happens when the flowers disappear…
More about the plum tree and taking care of it here and here.
