Alan's latest post on plums reminded me of MY Green
Gage - purchased from Miller Nursery and planted in
1995 or 1996.  On the advice of folks who claimed it
would be worth the wait, I've waited and waited and
waited for it to fruit; for the past 3-4 years, it's
had a single small branchlet that blossomed, but
never set any fruits until this year(it set and
ripened two) - and as was Alan's experience, it was a
poor-quality PURPLE plum with yellow flesh.
Grrrr.
