I planted my burgundy plum 2 weeks ago from Laguna Hills Nursery. It already has buds coming out of the lower branches. Love it!

168 hours in a week. We are aiming for 2 weeks of cold weather. Doesn't help when earlier in the week, we got over 70 degrees in the middle of winter. I still have leaves on my trees from the late bloom last fall.

I still had leaves on some of my apple trees until I stripped them by hand earlier this week.

The ants at my house laugh at Amdro. They walk around it.😂

A wild plum tree grew in my yard. The whole tree fills with fruit. Extremely sweet. Cherry sized.

Shake off 50% so plums grow bigger. How yrs did it take to fruit?

My plums and plout trees were doing great until I put vaseline on the trunk to keep ants off them. In fact, all my fruit trees died. I just replaced them. Hope they are as good. I has satsuma and santa rosa and multi plout tree.

We're they planted in compost? Sounds impossible to lose all trees. Sounds like a lack of water or root rot from bad soil.

Mix boric acid with fruit jelly. If you can, follow the ant trail back to the nest. Set the jelly mix wherever you see the ants. This will remove the entire colony.

I have all the pluot trees mentioned in this video (planted in a row). Flavor King is by far the worst producer. I've only gotten one fruit in three years.

Gophers. Is the only problem for my plums.

I had that problem. I ended up calling a gopher the kill, and they killed them all. I call them now and then if one pops up again.

Introduce a predator. Snake, hawk, falcon...... Flush the gopher holes with a sewer jet line.
