Prunus spinosa_Blackthorn is one of the most attractive trees that can be used for bonsai. Abundant white buds that look like a pearl develop in full blossoms early in March. Leaves come a bit later. And as they are quite small they doesn't "spoil" the elegance of the tree. The fruit is green at the beginning but later on it develops its typical dark blue colour. And again the size of the fruit is quite small so it is almost perfect fit to the tree.
