Tentoumushi 25 Jul, 2010	These trees grow all over Northeast Arkansas, along fence lines and back roads. The wild cherry flavor is not evident until they are cooked. The seed makes up most of the fruit but it is still worth gathering. One of the top fruits to make jelly/syrup in my opinion!

Tentoumushi 25 Jul, 2010	The bark and shriveled leaves of the wild cherry are poisonous. They contain cyanide But the fruit is safe to eat!
