Prunus umbellata , called flatwoods plum , hog plum and sloe plum , is a plum species native to the United States from Virginia , south to Florida , and west to Texas .[3] [4]
Prunus umbellata can reach 6.1 meters (20 feet) in height with a 4.6 m (15 ft ) spread. It has alternate serrate green leaves that turn yellow in autumn. Flowers are white, creamy, or grayish. Fruits are round, purple, and 1.3–2.5 centimeters (1 ⁄2 –1 inch) in diameter.[4] The trees bloom and bear fruit later than other plums. The fruits mature August–October. Large crops appear only every 3–4 years.[5]
P. umbellata trees can live up to 40 years and are very difficult to distinguish from P. angustifolia , with which it hybridizes easily.[6]
The fruits are made into jellies and jams.[7]
