Prunus umbellata, commonly known as flatwoods plum, hog plum, and sloe plum, is a species of plum native to the United States from Virginia to Florida and Texas. It can reach up to 6.1 meters (20 feet) in height and has alternate serrate green leaves that turn yellow in autumn. The flowers are white, creamy, or grayish, and the fruits are round, purple, and 1.3–2.5 centimeters (1⁄2–1 inch) in diameter. The trees bloom and bear fruit later than other plums, with large crops appearing only every 3–4 years. They can live up to 40 years and are difficult to distinguish from P. angustifolia, with which it hybridizes easily. The fruits are made into jellies and jams.
