I'm just jumping in with another Patty's Plum question here.
I bought a small plant at the Malvern Show this year. It's been on my
wish-list for some years.
It is looking OK but not very big. Is it too late, and the plant not
developed enough for it to flower this year?
Ours are flowering now but are planted out and are about three years old, or
so. So if yours has no buds and is really small, you'll probably have to
wait until next year.
If so, any advice on treatment to prepare for a good show of flowers
next year? Is it pretty tough or does it need coddling?
Ours get no coddling at all but if your plant is very small (what size is
the pot?) it might be an idea to keep it in a cool greenhouse until next
year, while it beefs up a bit. We had frosts here last winter of moderate
severity (for this area) and have had a lot of rain at times and Patty's
Plum still comes through it all.
