The American Wild Plum is a small tree that can be quite effectively used in the landscape in the proper situation. It produces attractive masses of 3/4 - 1" white flowers in early spring prior to leaf emergence. The flowers are extremely fragrant. The plants are very prone to root suckering and usually form a thicket of growth from a single tree. Thus they are difficult to grow as a single specimen and should be used where a mass planting is desired. The 1" red to purple fruit are quite edible and can be used for jellies. They provide food and excellent habitat for wildlife.
