Milletts Very Early Red is an Americana plum listed in South Dakota station records as a very heavy bearing variety, with moderately vigorous young trees and a rather bushy habit. In the station orchard, the fruit ripened about September 7 to 10. The bulletin judged it harshly and said it was too small and too dry to be of value. [S1]
The surviving description is brief and practical. It preserves this cultivar mainly as an example of an early named Americana plum that was productive but not worth keeping for fruit quality. The cited source gives no parentage, breeder, or introduction story. [S1]
