Beach Plums

(Prunus maritima) Native to the Atlantic coast dunes, these are American plums which grow 6-15' tall. The trees are loaded with fragrant white flowers in June and the late summer fruit is renowned for making jelly and sauces. Prized by the early settlers and a treat for the newer ones, too. For fruit production, plant two varieties. USDA Zones 4-9.
