Well you had the eating kind.. mine is just a blooming Cherry with messy little refuse late in the fall.. lol.. It is pretty tho, and those little cherries get so bright red.
We have other Cherry trees down back but they are the other kind of Cherry trees..great big things. We use the wood for smoking our meat..but they only blossom white in the spring and I have never seen any cherries on them..
There sure are a big variety of Cherries out there, aren't there? I didn't think there were that many left.. ;)
I never heard of cherries you couldn't eat.
