The Chickasaw Plum is a wild native plum that will grow as a single tree or form a thicket if left unmanaged. Its small sweet-tart fruits are pinkish-red to yellow with an extremely juicy golden flesh that will burst in your mouth. The Chickasaw Plum tree is an excellent source of food and shelter for wildlife and produces from mid-June to mid-July depending on the area of the country that it is grown. This self-pollinating plum tree offers reliable fruit production without the need for a companion variety. A true Chickasaw plum tree is hard to come by due to the very limited seed sources and propagation stock. Some well-known mail order nurseries sell impostor grafted varieties as Chickasaw plums. So, order early to reserve these Chickasaw Plum trees for sale from Willis Orchard Company. Chickasaw is self-fruiting. (250-300 Chill Hours)

Zones
USDA Hardiness Zones
A hardiness zone is a geographic area defined as having a certain average annual minimum temperature, a factor relevant to the survival of many plants. In some systems other statistics are included in the calculations. The original and most widely used system, developed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) as a rough guide for landscaping and gardening, defines 13 zones by long-term average annual extreme minimum temperatures. It has been adapted by and to other countries (such as Canada) in various forms. A plant may be described as "hardy to zone 10": this means that the plant can withstand a minimum temperature of −1.1 to 4.4 °C (30 to 40 °F).
