Any ideas about the conjoined fruits?

John,

I've not seen cojoined plums myself, but my strawberries have done it for
the last two years on the older plants - not on the 1yr old plants, just
the 2 or 3 yr old plants.

On the stawberries, I think it is (for no clear reason) two fruits
developing from one flower and then growing as one.

I've had some splendidly wierd shapes this summer - the best seemed to be a
triplet and looked something like a blown up rubber glove with the wrist
tied, and very short digits. (IYSWIM!!! )
