Detailed Information
The Sweet Cherry, *Prunus avium*, in general, originates from **Europe and Western Asia**.
More specifically, the species is thought to have originated in the region around the **Black Sea and the Caspian Sea**.
Therefore, while a cultivar like ‘Black Tatarian’ would have been developed through breeding, its lineage traces back to that European/West Asian region, particularly the area surrounding the Black and Caspian Seas.
