Wild Cherry – Prunus avium

Pollen Description : The body of Wild Cherry pollen is round but its three large pore type apertures stand proud of the surface giving it a triangular appearance, when viewed from the poles.  It is approximately 40 um from the base of the triangle to the tip.  When looking directly at one of the pores, the pore looks almost square and the overall pollen grain looks flat (28 um).  The pollen load is light brown in colour.
