    Is this a cherry plum - or if not, can you help with identification, please. Also, does anyone have any recipes for the fruits, I've got loads of them. One last question - can I prune the tree hard and if so, when is the best time. Thankyou.

    They look like Cherry Plums to me Clematis. As for pruning, can we have some pics of the whole tree before we offer advice.:gnthb:
