I planted a Methany yellow plum 6 years ago, It always puts on plums but drops before they get ripe, we spray with a orchard spray,we live in zone 9,and have sandy and slightly acid soil. Does any one have any Ideas why she is doing this? thank you Irene

The only thing I can think of is maybe they are not being pollinated well. I've heard that will cause this problem when the fruit is still quite small.
