[nafex] Fofonoff plum aka Homesteader

This sounds like an interesting plum.

Do any of you know of a source in the USA?

Canadian growers would need a virus certified source to ship to the USA.

Jim, I'm not familiar
with this plum, but it also goes by the name
'Homesteader'.  It is supposed to have a green skin
with a red blush.  I imagine the green turns to a yellowish
green when it is  fully ripe.   It is sold by
DNA Gardens in Canada.  Some sources say it is hardy to
Zone 2. -- Sam
