Almond, Dwarf Russian - - Prunus tenella
Bountiful, early spring flowers are rose-red and quite striking. Dark green leaves turn yellow-orange in fall. Velvety, oval, about 3/4" long, nutty, gray-yellow-tan fruit make this a good small shrub for wildlife browsing. This shrub is very dense which also provides excellent cover for birds and rabbits. Fairly drought tolerant. Grows 2'-5' high with equal spread. Flowers best in full sun.
