Prunus integrifolia

Prunus integrifolia is a tree native to mountain forests of western South America.[2] It has much larger leaves than most other species in the genus, up to 25 cm (10 inches) long, with no teeth along the edges. Flowers are in an elongated raceme, rising vertically upwards rather than hanging as in some other species[3][2][4]
