Prunus avium (Wild cherry)



I have found this species in its full bloom at the beginning of April, the flowers grow very densely situated on a stem. Some of them have edible fruit in autumn, and a few species have ornamental bark. They very often are the main source of food for bees. This tree also sent suckers from one side of the trunk due to a damage it may have experienced in the past. Also, there was much more flowers than leaves.
