Prunus pedunculata
Prunus pedunculata is a species of Prunus known in China as longpeduncled almond. It is native to China, Mongolia and nearby sections of Siberia. A small bush, reaching 1-2m, its pink flowers allow it to be used as an ornamental. Adapted to cold, arid environments, its manystemmed growth habit fixes blowing sand, an important contribution to succession. As Amygdalus pedunculatus Pall., it seems to be being evaluated for its seed oil potential.
