Cherrys

Hey Big we have pin and a fire cherry here in Fla. Yours look good. The ones down here will mess you up first hand experience.
can't remember for sure if I ate the pit but I had acid reflux for about a week after just a small sample. I wish we had
the climate for good cherries here in central FLA.. It is black berry season though and they sure are tasty.

I grow a barbados cherry here in Fla.it Don't know if it's a true cherry or not but they are good .They produce a few times a year and taste alot better than those serniam cherries.

Looks like a ranier to me too. Nice sweet cherry and the worms taste just as good as the rest of it. ' Frank

Well, that stinks.  After picking only a few quarts, they left as fast as they came.  Looking back at the previous years, same thing.  You have big ole red cherries for end of may and beginning of June, and end of june they are gone all dried, swiveled up.

Is that normal for cherry trees?

If they don't produce every year, you might get more fruit with another type of cherry as a pollinator tree. Plenty of info on the web about what types are compatible.

looks like the cherries my sister has in her yard up in Oregon. here in  Illinois we have sour cherries and I make a beer from them called cherries in the snow ale. best ale you can make in my book.

The first peoples in the Dakotas regularly used the chokecherry pits and all in their diets.  The Sioux particularly made sundried chokecherry patties from whole fruit that had been pounded in a stone mortars.  I've eaten these patties and aside from the rather gritty texture (imagine chewing tough coffee grounds) they caused no side effects.
