I straight up pretty much dont like plums. But i got a Nadia cherry plum to fruit this year. It was enormous like a plum but it tasted like a really strong cherry.
I've grown Beauty and Methly at my last house with good success. I know many people grow Shiro here in oregon. Currently I have Burgundy with its first 20 fruit on it this year. I do have a Flavor Grenade Pluot that was blooming this spring when a late frost killed the blooms. A bacteria infected the damaged flowers and spread. It fully defoliated the bottom 1/3 the tree. Still I got about 20 fruit hanging on it.
How do you keep the birds from eating them? My Methley fruited for the first year and the birds wouldn't leave them alone. I even covered them with nylon socks and they still got them all but two. They also have been going after my apples.
Do you put sealant on wear you take the cuttings in January on your stone fruit (to keep them from getting any diseases)? I planted a nectarine late fall one year and pruned it back and it ended up getting gnosis the next spring where I pruned it. Looking forward to putting in a nice order of scion wood for varieties that do well here in marry time PNW, in Jan.
