Ha. Once you get all the fruit, she will love it. So, did you learn to graft yet for making your plumrunners delicious? On prunus, you can graft pretty much all stonefruit.

No, I've not learned grafting yet. It's still very intimidating to me. But I've put a larger plum tree here in the garden with the intent of using it to practice grafting in the future.
I can't explain why I'm so anxious about trees. I guess in a way I've always considered them sentient. Guess I'm not your average Christian, but I don't want to hurt them or go trying things on them without a reasonable chance of success. Grafting is basically surgery, and that kinda scares me because I don't want to be unsuccessful and go hurting a tree. "Do no harm," right?
Lol I guess I'm more hippie than I thought.

I would start practicing on twigs at least a pencil width big. When I first started, I used a good box cutter type thing. You can start learning the cuts, how to wrap it and such. Then, when you are ready to try on a live tree, you are a pro 😀👍
