What is this tree?

[Un4732]

Just moved and trying to identify this tree..can you help.please?

Cherry tree would be my guess.

The stalks on the fruits look a bit short for cherry, my guess would be greengage. Otherwise plum, cherry plum, or damson. All members of the prunus family anyway.

Definitely a prunus - do post a close up of the bark and a leaf. But you'll have to wait for the fruit to ripen to find out for sure.

I had a cherry tree before and the bark and leaf don't look right. Will do a bark close up!

@Un4732 It isn't a cherry. Prunus is a big family of trees which includes cherries, plums, apricots, almonds, peaches and all sorts. Like I said, I think it is on the plum side of things, and most likely a greengage judging by the size of the leaves and shape of the unripe fruit.

Can you reach any of the fruit? If so cut through horizontally and see what’s inside

Plant Net is a great free app for identifying plants, trees etc. The picture with the fruit resembles one in my neighbour's garden which comes up as either prunus domestica (plum) or prunus x fruticans (blackthorn)

Maybe a bullace?

Looks like a greengage tree. The little green fruit will get about the size of a big conker & be orangey yellow, taste like plums.

The blackthorn is prunus spinosa (sloe). Prunus x fruticans is a hybrid.

Thank you all!

I’ve put two of your pictures into PlantNet, @Un4732 , and the strongest suggestions for both is a Briançon apricot., Prunus brigantina. Never heard of it myself but it’s a wild apricot tree native to France that can/does grow in the UK (assuming you are in the UK?). To my eye the leaves and immature fruit do look extremely similar.
I've got a greengage and the leaves aren’t grooved like that.

@Halsall Thank you! I like the sound of this - I'll keep an eye on it and see how it matures through the summer but seems to be a fruit tree of sorts. There are a couple of common plum trees, so makes sense if the previous home owner liked this type of tree.

Having looked it up on another link, it seems also to be called a 'plum' in France, and the fruits are smooth apparently, so it’s perhaps a bit ambiguous! Looks likely to be a prunus, though.
