My ex brought me some plums tonight, they were from a tree in her new
garden, They are the colour of Victoria's, but are only the size of
cherries. Any ideas?

definitely not, damsons are usually oval and deep purple, these are
Victoria plum colour, and round like cherries.

Will the resulting plants come true though? Or may they turn out as poor
hybrids? This is something that I have always wondered about.

In our garden we have a 50 foot cherry tree that I know was planted around
60 years ago from a stone bought in a a bag of cherries. It produces lovely
cherries - when we manage to get any ripe ones before the entire local
blackbird population turn up. So it must work out ok sometimes.

CherryPlum strikes hardwood cuttings in the autumn very easily. Or at
least that's my experience! I've discovered not to generalise too glibbly
on this topic :-)
