In early spring, many flowering plants have not yet bloomed. Cherry trees (Prunus species) produce blossoms early, offering a reliable early-spring food source for a wide range of pollinating insects -including bees- that are emerging from the cold, wet winter.

Why not create a Wembley Park walking route between the Prunus avium ‘Plena’ on Market Square and the Prunus serrulata on South Way/White Horse Square, or you can also explore our other walks here: wembleypark.greentalk.eco/walks

Prunus avium ‘Plena’ (Double Gean or Double flowered Wild Cherry) - A spectacular double-flowered variety of our native wild cherry which has been in cultivation for over 200 years.
