I know what you mean, Doc.  I'll just keep on cooking my meat 'til it's safe.
I've had a couple of pluots, several plums(Japanese Hybrid and European 
types), and apricots in the ground here for as long as 7 years - haven't 
yet had a fruit, and I'll be surprised if I ever do.  Peaches & nectarines 
do manage to set a crop about one year out of 4.
I don't even see many native plums in this area.   I can only think of 
maybe a half-dozen that I've ever seen on my 190 acres, and can only think 
of a couple of plum thickets that I've seen from the road in my end of the 
county.
