Prunus pleuradenia, the Antilles cherry, is a species of cherry laurel (Laurocerasus, sometimes included in Padus)[1] native to the islands of the Caribbean, particularly the Lesser Antilles. It may also be native to Venezuela.[2] Individuals are small to medium-sized trees, reaching 15 metres (49 feet). Some authorities consider it a synonym of Prunus myrtifolia.[3]
