Wild Plum crop is slowing coming!

Ok, don’t cheat, please look at the top photo first and see if you can spot the plum bushes, I am certainly hoping that this photo will not give away the location of our favorite area for collecting wild plums, there are close to 20 bushes in this remote green area..

Here is a current shot of the plums, all green and hard and certainly not ready to be picked yet and this years crop is less then last years but still given that its wild free pick food, you take what you can get! and do it with a smile.. Here is a close up of the leaves in case you want to go looking in your own areas.

    Hi there, Just thinking about the fact that they’re bushes and not trees… Is it possible that something four-legged (or even multi-legged and fuzzy) has feasted on them at some point? That might explain the multiple-stem growth instead of a single trunk? (With this many in one place, I’m leaning toward the ruminant angle (eat fruit/poop pits/new plums grow; ) xo D
