I planted my Mount Royal plum tree when I first moved to my home. Every year, I waited for it to flower and last year was the first time it actually flowered, putting forth only a handful of blossoms. Of course, the few blossoms meant there was no fruit.
This year, the tree's covered in flower blossoms; hence, I'm really really hoping that I might actually get a plum or two this year. The picture doesn't do the tree justice and I know it's hard to see all of the white blossoms on the branches (especially against that bright sky with white clouds). I thought it was interesting that the blossoms bloomed before the leaves even got a chance to unfurl. I never knew this because all the previous years, I only got to see the leaves unfurl.
I'm crossing my fingers and am looking forward to fruit this year. I'll post another update if I actually get some fruit. So excited.
