This is a six pack of one of our favorite soft mast species that for some reason isn’t very well known among gamekeepers, and we’d like to change that.
Mexican plum will thrive just about anywhere from hilly sites to bottomlands, where it quickly becomes a small tree that drop loads of fruit from late summer on into early fall. Because the fruits mature at such a critical time period when there isn’t much food around, wildlife flock to them and take advantage of all the vitamins, minerals, and even moisture plums offer.
Even better, Mexican plums fit right in along tight spaces like roads, pipelines, clearcuts, or powerline edges, and stretch out just enough to get the sun they need to produce bountiful crops. Even after taller trees have outcompeted Mexican plum, they still manage to produce plenty of fruit.
Unlike Chickasaw plums, these are rather tart, and make one of the best jellies you’ve ever tasted. Definitely trust us on this unsung winner and give it a shot…we can assure you’ll be mucho impresso.

Great trees
Arrived on time. Planted next day. It’s approaching fall here so it’s the time to get perennials and trees in the ground. We shall see.

I was impressed with the staff at Nativ Nurseries. The trees are in the ground now. Let’s see how they do next spring. Thanks

To early to tell
I received them and have planted them. They looked in good shape when I got them. It is too early to evaluate their survival rate or how they well produce fruit.
