American Wild Plum - 8025A

A versatile and naturally beautiful plum valued for both its ornamental appeal and culinary uses. In early spring, the American Wild Plum bursts into masses of pure white, fragrant flowers, creating a stunning display. Its long, wand-like branches form a wide, graceful crown, attractive even in winter.

Through summer, the tree fills with bright green foliage and produces abundant, showy globular fruits about 1 in. in diameter. These plums are excellent for jams, jellies, sauces, and preserves, and the tree itself is prized for its reliability and toughness.

Mature Height: ~15ft.
Pollination: One of the best pollinators for all hardy plums

A hardy, productive choice that brings beauty, fruit, and essential pollination to any Prairie orchard.

These wild plums are so small, about 6”, that you can hardly see them when planted. We had to put flags near them. I’ve been a customer for probably 20+ years and while the service is good, the bareroot stock used to be much bigger. The last several years or so, not so much. I was thankful to have found these trees though and the shipping was not too bad.

American Wild Plum rootstock is shipped as young, dormant bare-root stock. Because these are first-year plants, they may appear smaller than expected upon arrival. This is normal and does not reflect the health or future performance of the plant.

Once planted and given proper care, the root system will begin to establish, and the tree will direct its energy toward developing new shoots and growth. We recommend planting as soon as possible, watering consistently, and fertilizing according to the manufacturer's recommendations to encourage healthy establishment.

With proper growing conditions, American Wild Plum trees typically put on significant growth during their first growing season!
