thanks jaques,
i'm assuming i'll know it won't need feeding as the tree will be full of plums come summer?
a friend who had a plum tree in his garden as a child said his tree always followed a two year cycle. one year it had a bumper crop of plums, the next only a few, and then a bumper crop, and so on........
reading i heard this may b due to pollination of flowers as they flower early when the bees aren't out properly to pollinate.
cheers
