Prunus conadenia (Chinese: 锥腺樱桃) is a species of cherry found in Tibet, Gansu, Guizhou, Henan, Qinghai, Shaanxi, Sichuan and Yunnan provinces of China. A shrubby tree 6 to 10 m tall, it prefers to grow in mountain valleys between 2,100 and 3,600 m above sea level.[2] The people of Shangri-La eat its fruit, and Tibetan people burn its wood in the weisang purification ritual.[3]
