This tree not only graces your landscape with its delicate beauty but also provides a bountiful feast for local wildlife. Discover the magic of the Wildlife Chickasaw Plum Tree as we explore its unique features, from its growth requirements to the delectable treats it offers to the wild inhabitants of your environment.

Growing Information

Zone Compatibility: The Wildlife Chickasaw Plum Tree is a versatile species, flourishing in USDA Hardiness Zones 5-9. This adaptability makes it an excellent choice for a wide range of climates across the United States.

Size: At maturity, the Wildlife Chickasaw Plum Tree typically reaches a height of 12-20 feet, with a similar spread. Its moderate size allows it to blend seamlessly into your landscape while offering ample fruit for your local wildlife.

Chill Hours: This tree is relatively low-chill, requiring approximately 300-500 chill hours during winter, making it suitable for regions with milder winters.

Planting: Select a sunny location with well-drained soil to plant your Wildlife Chickasaw Plum Tree. Full sun exposure is essential to ensure optimal fruit production. When planting, dig a hole that is about twice the size of the root ball and place the tree at the same depth. To encourage proper spacing, maintain a distance of at least 10-15 feet between multiple trees. After planting, backfill the hole with soil, water thoroughly, and apply a layer of mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Pruning: Regular pruning is not required for the Wildlife Chickasaw Plum Tree, as its wild and natural growth form adds to its charm. However, you may trim away any dead or damaged branches as needed for the tree's health.

Watering: While the Wildlife Chickasaw Plum Tree is relatively drought-tolerant once established, it's crucial to provide consistent watering during its initial establishment phase. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during the growing season.

Fruit Description

Flavor: The fruit of the Wildlife Chickasaw Plum Tree offers a delightful sweet-tart flavor that attracts a wide range of wildlife, including birds, squirrels, and other small mammals. It's nature's candy for your local fauna.

Texture: The plums have tender, juicy flesh that's perfect for the wildlife inhabitants of your area. Their texture is inviting and easy to consume.

Color: When fully ripe, the plums display a striking reddish-orange to deep purple hue, adding a burst of color to your landscape as well as serving as a visual feast for wildlife.

Harvest Time: Typically, you can expect to see plums ripening in late spring to early summer, around May to June, depending on your local climate and conditions.

Pollination: Wildlife Chickasaw Plum Tree is partially self-fertile, meaning it can produce some fruit without cross-pollination. However, planting another compatible plum variety nearby can enhance fruit production, ensuring a more abundant supply of delicious plums for the wildlife to enjoy.

The Wildlife Chickasaw Plum Tree not only enhances the natural beauty of your outdoor space but also provides a generous gift to the wildlife that shares your environment. By planting this remarkable tree, you're creating a haven for local fauna while enjoying the enchanting beauty of nature right in your own backyard.
