American Plum, or Wild Plum, is a shrub or small tree with a short trunk, broad crown, and thorny, reddish-brown branches and twigs. Its large, showy, white flowers bloom in April and May, followed by fruit that ripens to bright red in August and September and provides an important source of food for many species of birds. American Plum grows up to 35 feet tall in full sun to shade, and in moist, rich, well-drained soils.
