These little beauties are growing on a tall tree in a neighbour’s garden. Odd ones are dropping onto the driveway, so we picked one up to investigate – they’re sweet little yellow plums (maybe an inch in diameter). We gathered a handful and I sowed the stones in pots – but what are they?
Are they Wild plums, or Cherry plums or something else? I don’t know how to tell.
