    I had 3 at one time, down to one now. Put up a rabbit fence and the deer get them. Put up a rabbit fence and a cage for the deer and mice get them. Sigh. Ok, one lost the top and I cut if off leaving the 2 foot trunk standing. Now, it has sprouted out both green and red twigs. Looks like a small bush. Are Newport Plums grafted? Is the green from the root stock? Should I trim all but one red twig and hope it becomes a leader and into a new tree, or not? Maybe I should just give up on this one.
