I took three pics of this cherry tree this A.M. Would love to know what kind of cherry tree it is...The berries are small, sour, red, but not chokecherry. Pin cherry? There are several trees here and multiplying. Birds love 'em.

If anyone can ID this type of cherry tree, I'd be ever so grateful. Or steer me to a tree ident. site?

the bark:

a branch beginning to leaf and flower:

and the early foliage:

You can take a sample into your local garden center. They should be able to idenitfy it for you!!
 
I dont know what kind of cherry but its definitely some kind of cherry tree, I remember I used to make bows and arrows as a kid with them because they are very pliable :)
 
Di, I would look at a Montmorency cherry. My second guess would be an Early Richmond. Both are hardy in cooler climates and produce a tart cherry. Make great pies! :wink:
