Maple/Acer – Mayday Tree

The May Day Tree (Prunus padus), also known as the European Bird Cherry, is a small to medium-sized ornamental tree admired for its fragrant white flowers that bloom in drooping clusters each spring. Its lush, dark green foliage provides shade through summer, transitioning to golden-yellow in fall. In late summer, the tree produces small black berries that attract birds and wildlife. Hardy and adaptable, the May Day Tree thrives in cool climates and is often planted for its beauty, resilience, and ability to support pollinators and local ecosystems.
