Well it certainlly looks plum seedling to me.  At first I said ''americana'' 
now I'm saying ''salicina'' the
americana has a certain spareness and crinkliness about the foliage where 
this one looks deeper in the lobes
than americana so therefore I'll say salicina.  But I've never seen enough 
european domestica seedlings to
consider them.
