Just foraged 1.2kg of Bullace for jam making next week.

I have verified as best I can that these are indeed Bullace.
1. Sloes, I know are smaller and have thorny branches.
2. Damsons are oval in shape.
3. Bullace are round, bigger than sloes and have no thorns.
Am I right?

#Foraging
Ready for washing and destalking in a red colander Bullace in my hand showing the size and purple to black colour. It has a bloom. Approximately 1.75cm .

Made Bullace Jam this morning.
It’s very nice and passed the OH test!!
It’s a little bit thin though. The good news is that the one I’ve put in the fridge has thickened up.

Two Kilner jars and two old ham jars full of dark Bullace jam.

These are different to sloes and damsons, right? Not sure I've ever seen a bullace!

Beautiful Bullace in the lane nearby. Cheerfully thought it could be childhood favourite Damson? One bite - astringent!!! 😜
#Fruits for #WildflowerHour keep on giving 🌱

Next to a telegraph pole in a lane - a Bullace tree dotted with blue purple fruits White bowl full of sherical blue Bullace fruits. Each one has a mauve ‘bloom’ on its skin. Up into the branches of local Bullace tree - round blue fruits and green leaves on long smooth branched limbs. Few thorns. Definitely not spiky like Sloe/Blackthorn, but fruits taste bitter, not sweet like Damson

Look at the little baby
A blue tit fledgling, sat in a bullace tree. Its parent is still feeding it, and it is loudly calling for food

For #WildflowerHour and #fruit, not sure if this is bullace or damson. Seen laden with fruit on Thanet.

Yes. Bullace are a variety of plumb. They usually grow wild in field boundary hedges.
Wild damson is slightly oval in shape and are much sweeter. Sloes are smaller and have thorny branches but these don’t.
Bullace are sour too. Found the crop here in West Yorkshire. See prev post for photos.

Went for a quick forage…and now I’ve got bullace & blackberry cordial on the go…smells incredible. If it’s as good as I think it will be, I’ll be back out this week
