The tree of this variety has the growth of a Sweet Cherry with small,

four on the stem. The single fruits are roundish-cordate, with flattened
ends while the double and triple fruits are more narrow and elongated;
the fruit matures unevenly, having green, red and black fruits at the
same time; pit roundish-oval, slightly pointed at the base, somewhat
larger in the double fruits.

occasionally as high as twelve petals, with two or three pistils. Fruit
usually very small, attached to a long, stiff, woody stem shallowly
inserted; round, flattened beneath; suture shallow; flesh and juice
reddish-black, with a bitterish-sour flavor, which it loses if allowed
to remain on the tree; pit of medium size.
