Well, why wouldnt it backbud?


Because that is a quite well-known issue with Prunus Mume, and the reason these are normally grafted with young branches inside the canopy, allowing a cut-back.

Would be happy to learn how you get them to backbud, as it is not common. I need to pull all the stops to get this one to ramify.
