Irregularly branched tree, with spreading branches, to 40 ft., sometimes shrubby: Lvs. oval-ovate to ovate-oblong, short-acuminate, subcordate or rotúndate at the base, rarely broadly cunéate, 1½-2½ in. long, sharply serrate nearly to the base, quite glabrous and purplish when young: racemes slender, many-fld., drooping, glabrous or nearly so, lower pedicels very long, in n. about 1 in., in fr. sometimes 2 in. long; petals oblong-linear, about ½ in. long; top of ovary glabrous: fr. purple or nearly black, bloomy, juicy and fairly sweet. May; fr. in June. From Newfoundland to Mich, and Kans., south to Ga. and Ala. Em. 2:503 (upper figures). H.T. 242. M.D.G. 1900:494, 495. G. 16:48; 34:343 (habit).
