Klamath Plum

Prunus subcordata (Rosaceae) is a deciduous shrub or small tree native to the mountains of Oregon and California. It grows 20 to 30 feet tall, producing white flowers in spring followed by small, edible plums that ripen to red or yellow.

Pacific plum grows in full sun on well-drained soil. The fruit was an important food source for indigenous peoples and is edible fresh or processed. It is rare in the nursery trade but valued for its native origin and wildlife food value. Hardy in Zones 6a to 8b.
