Celtis australis aka European Hackberry

Celtis australis, also known as the European nettle tree, Mediterranean hackberry, lote tree, or honeyberry, is a deciduous tree native to Southern Europe, North Africa, and Asia Minor. This tree, which was introduced to England in 1796, is characterized by its spreading nature and can reach a height of up to 25 meters, although 10 meters is more common in cooler climates. The bark is smooth and grey, resembling that of an elephant. The leaves are dark green, oval-shaped, and sharply-toothed, measuring up to 15 centimeters in length. In autumn, these leaves turn pale yellow before falling. Inconspicuous yellowish-green flowers appear in the spring and are followed by small, purple-black fruits that hang in small clusters, measuring up to 1 centimeter wide. The Celtis australis is often used as a shade tree and is commonly found as a street tree. Its narrow, alternate leaves are rugose above and tomentose below, remaining dark grey/green throughout the year. The wind-pollinated flowers are apetalous and green, occurring either singly or in small clusters. The tree's fruit, which is a small, dark-purple berry-like drupe, is highly sought after by birds and other wildlife.
