    Yes, even in Glasgow, my Pluot has started flowering. There is no sign of insect life yet, so I will have to resort to hand pollination. No sign of any other plums flowering either.
    Does anyone else have a pluot in flower now?

    Did you end up hand pollinating?

    I have discovered some pluots when I did some Summer pruning and have now eaten them!! so got a taste after all. Did anyone else get some fruit this year?
