Ridgeland is one of the best Chickasaw plums out there. Its a commercial quality plum capable of taking the environmental conditions and disease pressure of the Deep South. Ridgeland is not commercially available, at least not yet. You can get suckers of scion from me, and there are others who have it whom I'm sure would be happy to spread it around. If any Chickasaw type plum strain deserves to become a commercially available cultivar it would be this one.
A clarification: My Ridgeland originated as a root sucker (genetic clone) from the parent tree owned by an orchardist in Bufford SC area. That original seedling was bought from a girl selling plum seedlings in Ridgeland Sc. She got the seeds from what she thought was a wild plum growing in a roadside plum thicket.
