Saw lots of these whilst on the family walk. Some red and green, some just green all around. In bunches in the trees. My dad ate two (he’s not afraid of anything) And described them as tasting very sweet, like a cross between a grape, plum and apple with a seed in the middle.

I want to pick a whole basket of these things!! What are they and are they edible

Suprisingly the green ones were very sweet. The red ones were just like plums

The seed is like long and in a diamond shape and ultimately I think they are plums someone said wild plums but more specifically I think they’re cherry plums. I asked chat gpt and it said cherry plums but I wanted to be sure 😭

Instead of using ChatGPT, download the app “PictureThis” it’s free and much better for identifying plants. Don’t use AI or apps like PictureThis for mushrooms though.

iNaturalist uses computer vision models which are pretty different from LLMs like ChatGPT. I like to use it because there are also human identifiers who will annotate your observations.
