Magnolia grandiflora  (Southern Evergreen Magnolia) Small examples are common in gardens; the fine tree at the NE corner of the junction of Clarendon Street and Orchard Street is sadly no more. There are apparently also mature trees in Christ's College (First Court), Sidney Sussex and Trinity Hall
Mangolia x soulangiana  (Saucer Magnolia) The commonest magnolia in gardens, e.g. along Melbourne Place [map]
Malus domestica  (Orchard Apple) A descendant of Isaac Newton's famous apple tree stands outside Trinity College in the City Centre
Malus floribunda  (Japanese Crab) Noteworthy only when in flower: there are some at the SW side of Mill Road railway bridge [map]
Malus x purpurea  (Purple Crab)PCSeveral along the S side of Jesus Green; also behind the phone boxes near the junction of Emmanuel Street and St Andrews Street [map]
Malus sylvestris  (Wild Crab)CrTwo in the middle of Alexandra Gardens
Malus trilobata  (Maple-leaved Crab) Several street trees along Hoadly Road [map]
Malus tschonokii  (Pillar Apple)PAA common street tree, e.g. in Lower Park Street to the N of the City Centre; also on Jesus Green behind the play area
Mespilus germanica  (Medlar) There is one on the Sidgwick Site, on the E side of the access path opposite the University Library access road [map]
Metasequoia glyptostroboides  (Dawn Redwood)DRA must-have tree since its re-discovery: there are numerous examples in the grounds of Cherry Hinton Hall, including a large one in the middle of the main lawn [map]; Fitzwilliam College has a small group of younger trees, just by the bus stop on Huntingdon Road [map]. The original UK tree is in the Botanic Gardens near the Trumpington Road gate
Morus nigra  (Black Mulberry) There is one on the S side of Huntingdon Road just before Storey's Way; there is a very famous old tree in Christ's Fellows Garden, and also one in Pembroke College
