It's 8 feet tall - he says it came up by itself - has a plum seed, very
very sweet to eat, some type of plum. He didn't bring a branch today, but
may take it to the extension agent - thanks for the input!

Re: [nafex] Identify fruit?
Looks too big for a beach Plum (though tough to tell scale)

The serrated leaves I believe put it in the Prunus family and the bark
looks very similar to cherry. It's too late in the season for cherry, I
believe. My guess is plum and very possibly Prunus americana.

Re: [nafex] Identify fruit?
All features (leaves, buds, bark, fruit) are out of focus... making definitive ID difficult for me...and there's nothing provided to give any indication of scale/size.
Bark, as best I can ascertain, is suggestive of Prunus... but the fruits look very much like a crabapple...
Differentiation between Prunus and Malus would be simple for the friend to accomplish. ... just cut or bite into a fruit... single stone/pit vs. multiple seeds.

Re: [nafex] Grafted Apple After-care
Single trunk sounds best. Sell in fall to be sure of full dormancy after
cold takes leaves off.

Subject: [nafex] Grafted Apple After-care
Hello,
I'm interested to know if anyone might be able to share some experience
regarding care of apple trees, post-grafting.
Specifically, this year in New York, I bench-grafted some apples using whip
and tongue or an omega-tool. I have a couple of questions.
1) do people normally recommend trimming back multiple buds from which new
growth has emerged from the scionwood, so there is only one main developing
trunk for the tree?
2) Also, may I ask at what age/maturity anyone who is selling trees
typically sells them? I'm not sure if it would be too early to sell these
to customer in the fall and if I should wait until next spring before
offering them for sale.
I am growing trees in 13" deep tree pots and rootstocks are about 1/2"
caliper. For most of the grafts, top growth from the graft union is
between 16-20"
Thank you kindly for any experience you are able to share.
Sincerely,
John Paul Learn
