European Cornel

The astrological spring begins today and the cornels are in full expansion everywhere and show their finest outfit.

The European cornel, also known as cornelian cherry, is a large shrub or small deciduous tree.

In early spring, small bright yellow flowers open all along the bare stems.
A wonderful display and very useful for early foraging insects.
