Plum trees tend to give fruits in waves. one year a bumper crop, than a lean
year. has been that way for years.
Yoy cant do anything about that. Its called nature. Better luck next year or
the tree next door. ( they seem to do always better ;-) )

We have a Santa Rosa plum tree in our backyard that has always given a
bumper
crop of fat, juicy plums. This year, there's only like 3 on the whole
tree.
I've done nothing different than usual regarding pruning, fertilizing,
etc.

Anybody have similar problems, or even heard of it? What could cause
this?

I'm in Marin county, CA

Thanks
