Hey guys thanks for the replies to my last post. I've been searching everwhere online and reading about this variety. Some sites list it as a japanese some as a european plum. Im just trying to figure it out so I can plant the right pollinator. If there is anyone out there with any knowledge about this or anything at all about this plum let me know.

From this link it appears to be Japanese type of plum, with origins in Australia or NZ. The possible pollinators listed by some nurserys there I found on a brief search look to be Japanese also..

Here is a link that might be useful: Luisa plum

Thanks for the link Eboone. Its weird that raintree sells it as a euro and alot of other nurseries in Australia and NZ do also. Im guessing I will figure it out once it starts growing.

Looks like misleading marketing and/or ignorance about merchandise is not limited to US nurseries :)
Good luck with the plum, let us know how it does.

PS, I would suggest emailing that link to raintree and see what they say.
