I think mine are the prunus padus ones.............supposedly they grow north of the Arctic circle ???? It's no' that cold here

Might be why they're growing so vigorously though

.....they're not in full sun, there's a huge great Sycamore shading them, and they're certainly not rare around here.
We do have a lot of cherries in the village though, and most are edible but these ones.........well, let's just say you'd need to be very hungry

I had one of the red fruited kind in the front garden but it died when the Wych Elms did, not sure if it were an insect or a fungal thing

nearly got the Rowan too what ever it was. Two further down the street didn't survive it.
