Stan’s harvest diary 2021

Opal plums, the first of European plums (along with July Green Gage) to ripen. Flavor is mild but very pleasant.

Catherine Bunnell plums (a Luther Burbank selection, has been considered a lost variety for a while). A nice early Asian plum, flavor is a bit reminiscent of Santa Rosa, but the fruit size is smaller.

A Howard Miracle plum tree, I expect these plums to start ripening in a couple of weeks. One of the best, if not the best, of Asian plums flavor wise. They continue ripening from late June to mid-late September.
