Prunus webbii is a dense, spiny shrub or small tree from the Mediterranean region, related to almond and thought to have contributed genes to the cultivated almond. It is grown mainly as an ornamental or hedging shrub in sunny, well-drained sites.
Prunus webbii is a species of Prunus found growing around the Mediterranean Sea, from the Iberian peninsula through Sicily, Greece, Crete and the Aegean Islands, the Balkans and Anatolia, and possibly as far as Iraq or Iran. It is also found in certain areas of Northern Africa. A dense spiny shrub or small tree with extremely bitter seeds, it is thought to have contributed with some genes to the domesticated almond Prunus dulcis, although the extent of the contribution is debated and not yet fully understood.
