Default Prunus cerasifera

Yesterday when we went for lunch at the Beefeater, the place I came
across Cherry Plumb tree (Prunus cerasifera) growing last year, I
noticed that they were already in flower so I doubt they will find any
pollinators at this time of year.

A few days ago I saw a small bumblebee (or could it have been a mason
bee? Both more likely than a large honeybee!) around, so there may be
other insect pollinators. But I am sure there will be some frosts later
which will damage any set fruit.
