I don't like cherries and don't know anything about growing them, but; in cold weather areas like yours, apples should grow well. I have seen old heirloom type apple trees with apples about the same size as cherries and real thorny (I mean dangerously thorny) limbs. They trees are not large like a regular apple or peach tree. They were called 'hog apples' , but i don't know their real name; but they were tasty....I have apple trees (some heirloom), peach and pear trees. I want to add a couple cherry trees; I prefer sweet cherries, but I think I'm a little too far north. I've hear of some pie cherries coming out of Canada that are as sweet as sweet cherries, but I can't track down a source.
