Subject: [nafex] Italian Plum
> Hello,
>
> I was at a small nursery yesterday and was looking at the plum trees.
They had two varieites 1) Stanley, and 2) Italian. The Stanley's had good
> lateral branching, but the ones labeled Italian just seemed to be a huge
whips, 1" diameter trunk, and about 8' tall. Is this normal behavior for an
> Italian plum?
>
> I am looking for a good black or red plum that will be hardy in Canadain
hardiness zone 6a. Both of the above are blue plums.
>
> I had to laugh at how poorly the fruits were labeled. One tree just had a
siingle tag which read "apple". Those that did have labels had no
> information regarding growth habit, or fruit quality.
>
> Fruit is becoming a smaller and smaller niche in the nurseries. This
should help bolster the nurseries that deal exclusively in fruit, but it is
a
> real shame.
