Plum wood??

Hey everyone. We just cut down a purple plum tree in our front yard and I am wondering how it would be for smoking. Anyone have any experience with this? Sure would make clean up a heck of a lot easier if I can use it in the Egg. Thanks.

Did a real quick search, this is from the first hit:
APRICOT, PLUM, PEACH, NECTARINE - All have a flavor similar to hickory, but with a milder smoke and fruit notes, these wood are perfect with most lighter meats, such as chicken, turkey, pork and fish. The flavor of sweet woods, once cut, will dissipate and become lost over time, so older supplies may not be as effective at flavoring your meats. When dealing with plum wood, make sure that it is of the fruit bearing varieties.
