Color me Dolgo Jelly Red. I've a similar plum crop. We'd just put the
second prop under another branch a day back and I was sweating bullets
about the stormy weather at 3:00 a.m. Nothing broke that I can see --
and I'd have seen it by now if it had. Hallelujah! We've got some tree
work coming up and I talked to The Guy about my plum tree. They'll do
some serious pruning in the cold of winter.
