Overloaded Plum Tree



We have two French Prune Plum Trees. Both are very loaded with plums this year. They are ripening later than last year, but they have bent the branches and look quite dramatic!

The prune plum is very, very sweet with purple skin and yellow flesh. We eat the plums raw, dry them for winter use, and I often make plum butter and chutney, as well as plum tarts. Last year I even made a plum liqueur that was quite tasty.
