I just took the expression from hte caterpillar, meaning different stage of developement. I think I now better stop to make some comments about flowers and fruits with my lousy knowledge...

Sorry I don't know what you mean by instar?
Is it the stamen you are talking about? I am no botanist, but I should think they fall of. I think the fruit is developed after the flower, as you can see f.ex. on an apple, where there are leftovers of the flower at the bottom :)

I did not make any obserations about the time from blossom to fruit. I just get the fruits, so I have really no IDeas about this one, and I will immediately check out cherry trees!

Ehm... These little things hanging from the blossom are early instars of cherries aren't they??? Or I am a complete floral fool (what I actually am...)!! If not, what is it then, hein...???

I am not sure either, but did you look at the little cherries coming out of the blossom??

I am not sure it is prunus, I believe prunus leaves are more oblong :)

Bin mir aber nicht ganz sicher, musst du auf jeden Fall überprüfen. Pflanzen sind normalerweise nicht so mein Ding.
