It seems Plum Tuckered doesn't agree with the 98 degree temps today. It's been watered well, during this year's drought, and until today, it's held up, but today, at 5pm I noticed it wilting and it had lost it's substance under the 98 degree heat. I've had this cultivar for 5 or 6 years, and it has never done this before.

Before @ 9am today

This is Bob Selman's, so it came from North Carolina. Therefore, I'm confident that it has been observed under extremely high temperatures. 🤷🤷
