I have a plum which was called "Wild Goose" that I got from someone in 
Florida many years ago.  It has a red-purple skin and yellow flesh, is a 
pretty reliable bearer in this late frost prone area.  Branches break from 
overload of fruit.  Some damage from curculio but always some fruit.   I 
believe Gennadi Eremin recognized it as munsoniana when he was here.  Plenty 
of scion wood.
