Flatwoods plum is a lovely small native tree found in east Texas Pineywoods area. It is a low-branching single trunk tree that generally does not sucker to form thickets. It is often found on the edges of woods growing toward the sun. Grows in well-drained, acidic soil, and it doesn’t do well in heavy black clay. It is one of the last plums to flower, and the fruit are also late in maturing. It produces heavy crops of fruit only every 3 or 4 years.
