Re: I'd like to know more about Bullace- what is it?

It may help to clear any doubt about the name "cherry plum" if I quote page 84 of "The Field Guide To The Trees And Shrubs Of Gt. Britain" (1981) which confirms Dorts identification as [i]prunus cerasifera[i].
Re. my April post: the Chille Pepper shaped fruits all turned pale yellow and fell in May. Disection revealed no visible wildlife inside. The few Cherry Plums which the birds have left me with are now the same size and shape as my regular cherrys although still green. The mystery as to how it grew from a sloe or bullace stone remains.
