Hi. Can anyone help me identify this tree. Is it a Plum or Damson? 2 years ago it set one flower and fruit which dropped off when still green. It hasn't flowered since. Each summer it is covered in aphids.

Thanks

it is almost impossible to distinguish between a plum and a damson. Be patient and wait to see the fruit.
