Sour cherry (Prunus cerasus) is a small fruit tree grown for tart cherries used in pies, baking and preserves. Its rounded crown carries white spring flowers, followed by a summer crop. Trees can produce suckers as they become established.
These are unnamed seedlings rather than a selected cultivar. They offer the natural diversity of sour cherries, with differences in fruit and growth between trees; their seed parent has not been identified.
