Not a plum to be found in SE Nebraska nor 375 miles away in Nort Central. Usually there's a plethora of them. No late frost this spring neither. Anybody have them?

Yes, I have them here but ZERO chokecherries. They were loaded early and the berries were about the size of #4 shot and then all just fell off. No June Berries or blueberries here either. VERY strange year.


I have nothing clever to put here.

No Black Current, no June Berries, no Plums and very few Choke Cherry. We had some late frosts and especially the June Berry's they are one of the first to bloom so they got hit the hardest. I did walk in the patch of June Berries a few days ago and I might have been able to pick a hand full. Maybe!!

I haven't been out in the swamps a lot due to the skeeters being the size of Mallards but it looks like we have a bumper crop of High Bush Cranberries this year.

Ours won't be ripe until late September, possibly later.

Plums are thick and noticed yesterday no chokecherries. Apples have one of the biggest crops ever around here.

No plums or apples and my peaches rotted on the trees before they ripened and the corn ears are about the size of a small cucumber. Yes it Is a strange year.

My Paw Paw was LOADED with small fruits, but over half have disappeared. I think the very wet spring we had caused a stem rot.

If anyone has any wild plum pits, I would like some for planting.
