This XfrogPlants European Bird-Cherry 3D model collection contains
three
highly detailed, fully textured variations of the plant at different ages.
Shrub/Tree, deciduous broadleaf
Bloom: May-June
Origin: Southern, Western and Northern Europe, Northern and Eastern Asia
Environment: deciduous and alluvial forests, shrubberies; on moist, fertile soil
Climate: mild, cool, cold
Notes: The European Bird-Cherry is often planted as ornamental shrub. In the middle ages its edible fruits were used for preparation of mush and juice. Today it only plays an important role as fodder for wild animals, bees and butterflies. On the other hand it is unfit to grow close to fruit trees because of its many aphids.
