Bright red Nanking cherries (Prunus tomentosa) grow on bushes in colder climates. They make excellent jelly and wine but lack the size and firmness necessary for canning as whole fruit. Nanking cherry bushes produce heavy crops of short stemmed strong red fruits that hold well on the plant 2-3 weeks. Sweetness is enhanced by allowing the fruit to remain on the bush until it is ripe enough to fall off the stems. At this point Nanking cherries are quite palatable, about like a sour cherry. It takes about 80 cherries to yield 1 pound (454 g)
