Prunus pleuradenia
Antilles cherry is a small to medium Caribbean tree of the Lesser Antilles, reaching about 15 metres, grown mainly as a shade or ornamental tree in warm climates. It is a cherry laurel, so it is sensitive to cold and needs a warm, frost-free site.
Prunus pleuradenia, the Antilles cherry, is a species of cherry laurel (Laurocerasus, sometimes included in Padus) native to the islands of the Caribbean, particularly the Lesser Antilles. It may also be native to Venezuela. Individuals are small to medium-sized trees, reaching 15 metres (49 feet). Some authorities consider it a synonym of Prunus myrtifolia.
