I foraged some plums today that are really delicious, but are only about 1 inch in size. Anyone know what type they are?

Looks like our wild plums, but ours get purplier when they are totally ripe.

Cherry plum. I just made and canned jam from them and it turned out fab.

Yes, after more poking around online, I think they are cherry plums. I canned some in light syrup and plan on making jam from the rest :)
