Stumbled up on this exploring and I dont know what it is. If you zoom in you can see very fine serrations along the leaf margin. At the bud the leaves are opposite, but as the stem grows out, the leaves are alternate. The fruit is entire with no flower scars and it is NOT tasty...The bark pattern looks cherry like, fairly smooth with splotchy grey/silver color and there are no thorns on the tree...

Maybe wild plum! A pic of the trunk or the inside of the fruit would help!

No thorns on this tree.... It's probably 8-10ft tall but got pushed over by a pine top that fell... There's a single pit in the fruit...

Not sure what the Scientific name is(NCHillbilly) would no better than most. But from what I see in the pic that's a wild plum tree!

From what I can see in the pics, I'd say that it's a Chickasaw plum or maybe hog plum. Chickasaw plum isn't nearly as thorny as the American wild plum.

Cross threading is better than two lock washers.
