This year the curculio were very much slowed by the cool rainy weather, I had some hope of the Japanese plums finishing a decent crop in spite of the huge curculio population created by last year's big crop. Alas, the weather changed and it only took a few hot dry days here and there for the curculio to make up for lost time. Donna
