Evans Cherry is a sour cherry rediscovered in Alberta, where it proved able to fruit in a demanding prairie climate. Its resilience and reliable crops helped make it popular with Canadian growers.

The tree produces abundant bright red cherries with a tart, full flavour. The fruit is used for pies, jam, and preserves.
