It's Wildflower Wednesday here on the Blog! Recently the Sandhill Plum or Chickasaw Plum was made our state Fruit. I had transplanted a couple a couple of years ago and they are blooming. This is the end of one of the branches with lovely flowers. I just transplanted 3 more and they seem to be surviving the move so I am happy about that. Butterflies like them quite a lot.
Very densely flowered, should I assume they produce fruit?
ReplyDeleteThey do. It is small but fairly sweet. The skin is a bit tough and sour so and interesting combo. It was a good year for them, they bloomed very profusely this year.
DeleteGreat capture, Shelly. I'm thinking of Sandhill Plum pies now.
ReplyDeleteOoo, I bet that would be good. Making me hungry. Thanks Tom!
