Sugar gliders like eucalyptus trees for several reasons.Eucalyptus trees are tall and straight, and difficult for predators to climb. Sugar gliders can nest in the hollows high up in eucalyptus trees and, because these trees are so high, easily glide from tree to tree without ever having to come down to the ground.Eucalyptus trees are a good source of food for sugar gliders. These little marsupials prefer sap and resin from trees such as eucalyptus and acacia (wattle), and nectar from the flowers. In addition, the trees often have other foods that sugar gliders eat in their native environment, such as small insects like mealworms, beetles, crickets, grasshoppers, lerps and moths.
Creamy white is the color of the flowers on the blackthorn tree [Prunus spinosa]. The flowers show up just before the tree leafs out in early spring.

Additionally, the blackthorn or sloe tree has purple black fruit whereas that of the cherry plum is red or yellow.
