| A local farm market sells delicious red plums, the size of a golf ball. The red skin is tart and the interior red flesh when ripe is sweet. They are delicious. I wanted to plant a tree or two in my backyard but the owner of the market did not know them by any name but cherry plum. A search on the internet yielded at best sketchy information. Can anyone name this variety of plums and give a source for purchase? |

| Sounds like a Japanese plum to me. Many kinds. Do not know, however if those are or are not grown in your area. |
