Though I have not tried it I am putting in an order of scions for it because it fits my goals for Alaska trials. Early season plums are a must for short seasons up there. If somebody gives a good enough review that you want some too then let me know.

Perfect! Then save your early one for me and when i get my early one we can swap. Thanks.

I have a person that I know about as well as I know you that likes trying out early ripening plums that are easy as in semi-cling or freestone. I personally like the Japanese plum Oblinaja for those same attributes but my trading buddy needs to find larger fruiting breeding partners of the type of species such as early Laxton and Opal to incorporate into wilder types of prunus domestica that have super-genes that allow for northern exposures in the winters. 

He also seems to be the type like us, but actually more like a soils technician as John is. For example the winning vote from the inventor of hugel-culur gardening went to him. 

I keep on pace with him by getting his fruit tree stuff and work on ideas how to best teach the farming community and ourselves as Alaskans generally by trying to get those northern farming institutions to contact Jesse to copycat this site. Without one there's no other way for anyone to link to us to know what we have done so far in Alaska. What's attractive about Alaska is that the interiors have no winter survival of the common pests that farmers here have to spray for.
