Prunus spinosa
This plant is hugely beneficial to bees and the many other types of pollinating insects. Blackthorn is excellent for wildlife, providing vital early nectar and pollen for insects, food for moth and butterfly caterpillars, and nesting sites and food for birds and mammals through its dense, thorny structure and sloe berries. It supports numerous species in various habitats, making it a highly valuable plant for biodiversity.
