Title: Wild fruit (beach plums) provide a tart treat


WILD fruit provide a tart treat
from the(Dover) Delaware Capitol Review
...She waded into thickets to gather the tiny, blue fruit.... A cold, windy spring might strip the shrubs of blossoms before they can product fruit.... <http://www.newszap.com/articles/2004/08/10/dm/central_delaware/mc04.txt>


Here's an excerpt from this story:

        But Cornell University, the University of Massachusetts, and Cape Cod Cooperative Extension have developed a guide that might help farmers raise beach plums more successfully.

It is available online at beachplum.cornell.edu/bpguide, and suggests soil conditions, plant spacing, and schedules for pruning and fertilizing.
