One plant that will always draw me away from a cosy fire and a good book is the Tibetan Cherry, Prunus serrula. |
Some folk prefer the red cherry, Prunus serrula, where the bark forms shiny bands. |
The beauty of bark can really be appreciated in winter, from the alabaster white bark of betula utilis var jacquemontii to the gleaming coppery red of prunus serrula. |
If you only have room for one trunk then perhaps Prunus serrula has the most outstanding bark of all. |
The lowermost part of the sampled succession corresponding to the Rumba Formation is distinct in the abundance of Pistoprion serrula sensu Bergman. |
More common is Prunus Serrula with polished new bark, a deep red-brown. |
