POTD - Michigan Cherries



POTD - Michigan Cherries

My sister and her husband planted a cherry tree a few years ago.  She told me that it was literally a four foot tall stick when they planted it.  They had no idea if it was ever going to produce cherries but last year they did see a couple of them.  This year the tree is covered with cherries.  We picked a few of them to test and boy oh boy are they tart!!  They are most certainly pie cherries as those puppies need some sugar.

Enjoy!

You got me again, this photo is perfect. How wonderful to have a tree like that in their yard.
