What is a sour cherry?

The morello cherry is the fruit of the morello cherry tree, also called the sour cherry or tart cherry. The morello cherry tree (botanical name Prunus cerasus) is much more resistant to cold than other cherry trees.

It has been cultivated in Quebec since the early 2000s. The new cherry trees, which produce very tart fruit, were developed by the University of Saskatchewan to withstand our climates.
