hi steve, looks like you are into plum grafting much heavier than me. my only success was grafting a ny150 onto my stanley plum. it's a great tasting plum and quite contrast to the purple stanley plums. the graft has grown quite thick now after about 6 years and i am getting a fair - 4
is the latin name of what you're looking for prunus americana or prunus spinosa. the former being the american wild plum and a likely candidate for the syrup on your ice cream. looking for american wild plum syrup might be easier than looking for blackthorn syrup. http://www.slowfoodusa.org/ark/wild_plum.html http://gardenbed.com/5 /5163_med.asp - 3

we have a newport plum in the front yard here in denver. looked pretty for a few days in the spring but never fruited much. this year though it is about ready to snap in half from all the fruit. we don't want the fruit and have had no success in finding people to pick it for themselves. birds and squirrels have trashed what's left - 3

there's a tree i've seen growing on nature strips and parks. in size and shape it could pass as a plum tree, and its leaf size and shape and density of foliage is very similar to that of the plum, too. but this tree has distinctive red leaves, a very dark red. and right now it is fruiting, the fruit resembles a dark cherry only it - 2
a gardening customer had a green street clean up in february and called me over. he wanted his plum tree to be pruned. the tree is huge and has 3 grafts on it of different plums. he has never been happy with it. i told him it was the wrong time to prune but he insisted i do it. even though i cut out most of the centre - 2
have you tried looking for a food bank in your area? or a church? i found one in l.a. that was happy to come out for an overabundance of plum s one year. i've recently discovered desert willow (chilopsis linearis). they get stunning pink flowers, no fruit and they're more drought tolerant. they are more shrubby, but can be trained - 2
