Native plum seedings for sale in bulk

In my yard I've got larger-fruited named varieties of the Chickasaw including Guthrie and Odom. The generic seedlings are quite a bit smaller but suitable for Mass planting for wildlife

The American plum is the Yankee version of the Chickasaw, with a great deal of overlap in their native range.

But I think south of around baton rouge, Chickasaw would probably do better.

Once you get away from the Gulf south, the American plum is probably your best bet

thx brother... this is a great deal. ordered a round of plums and persimmons to plant in the wooded area of my place. if 25% make it it still will be a deal

planting guide for both says anything from full sun to dappled sunlight. The place I’ll be planting is the latter

Also, I air-layered some very large branches on my odom plum tree last spring rather than just thin it out. I have a nice big potted Odom with your name on it. It is one of the named larger cultivars of Chickasaw, worthy of a select spot in your orchard

My trees were delivered y-day. Ran over to my place and got them planted y-day afternoon.

Where did you plant? And do you have hogs?

North Central MS. No hogs in my area. Trying to decide if I want to order tree tubes for them.

I think I have to order the tubes with hogs present.

Bump. Good planting time coming to end soon with the warm/hot weather

The ones I've ordered in the past had roots small enough that I could just drive a spade into the ground, rock et back and forth enough to make a slit I could slip them down into, then pull up to set the crown at ground level and stomp everything firm

Digging a proper hole would get very old quick with a hundred or more plants.

I've also been lucky enough to have recent and future rains so I didn't have to worry about watering. That timing was likely crucial. Out in your pastures, depending on the weather, you may need to bring quite a bit of water
