Was wondering how your new Victoria plum is doing.
Mine has started to look much more healthy now the temperature has
increased. Still quite wet and soggy here.

Don't jknow about Jake's, but ours (2 years old, I think) is not at all
happy, with crinkley folded leaves and no fruit. :-(


Crinkly folded leaves. Could that be black or greenfly?
My 2 cherry trees are riddled with blackfly at the tips on new growth.
I have had to leave them that way until things warm up to prevent disease
when I prune them.
I think plum trees are the same, as in summer pruning to prevent disease.

Best of luck.
