Prunus angustifolia, known commonly as Chickasaw plum, Cherokee plum, Florida sand plum, sandhill plum, or sand plum, [3] is a North American species of plum-bearing tree. It was originally cultivated by Native Americans before the arrival of Europeans. [4] [5] [6] The species' name angustifolia refers to its narrow leaves.
The Wichita, and possibly other southern peoples, planted or tended thickets of low-growing Chickasaw Plum trees separating and bordering their maize fields. Tobacco was planted in separate fields and tended by old men. Women did most of the other farming, although men assisted in clearing land. [20]
Prunus americana, commonly called the American plum, [7] wild plum, or Marshall's large yellow sweet plum, is a species of Prunus native to North America from Saskatchewan and Idaho south to New Mexico and east to Québec, Maine and Florida. [8] Prunus americana has often been planted outside its native range and sometimes escapes cultivation. [9]
