    Hi everyone. Thanks for letting me in the forum.
    I took this picture near Berlin, Germany - It is, as you can see, a small tree with flowers.
    Does anyone have any clue on what species this could be....? Any clue would be apreciated.

    Cheers
    João Oliveira

    Welcome, Joao. I can't see the details very well, but it looks like a purple leaf plum, Prunus cerasifera. Is this in bloom now?

    Almond maybe.
    This is hardly a fresh photo.

    Agree with Purple-leaved Plum Prunus cerasifera 'Pissardii' or 'Nigra' (or other similar cultivar). I'd estimate the photo was taken some time in April; definitely not today!

    I think that the temperatures in Lisboa is about 10° at night and 18° in the afternoon at the moment, so some varieties of Prunus might well be flowering there right now...
