the recently discussed 'Superior': I've read that pollination can be 
problematic with these. Specifically, some say they pollinate each other, 
while others say that they can only be pollinated by wild plums, and that 
the people who think their hybrid."

   Putting all rumors and speculations aside, my 'Superior' Plum produces 
full crops of fruit and there isn't a wild plum within miles.

   We Americans tend to believe that anything written in a book is truth 
whereas a published work is no more than someone's (sometimes uneducated) 
opinion.  Don't believe everything you read.
