A few flowers only, but lack of fruiting may just as likely be non-weather related factors that are responsible and age of graft/roots stock. They come from some sort of cottage industry in georgia that I picked up for $4/plant from a local fleamarket vendor. Next winter I will remove much of shade and I will see what happens. We also do have a lot of borers that will attack peaches and perhaps cherries. They seem to not attack plums and also the native chickasaw plums.
I am wondering if grafting to something else would defeat borers
