I am not sure if it is this site or another, I will keep looking, where you describe your plant and it gives you a list to check, great for figuring out "weeds".

Eriisa: yes that is exactly right :)

been busy today....I have a huge Bismarkia palm in my front yard and it has thousands of seed falling to the ground. Some are as big as a small wine glass and other are nearly as big as a tea-cup (small). I have been picking them up today ....2 barrow loads full of them...nearly killed me.

Here is a pic of a bismarkia...1/2 the size of mine, they are beautiful palms but very messy :(

Subject: Re:
DanDanDan: I'm not an expert either, but firstly are they the fruiting cheery type not flowering cherries. I haven't had to prune mine but it's only 2 years old. Last year we only got a dozen or so cherries but it's laden this year. Also could be the variety might need a pollinator, Hope this helps.

Foxy Lady: oh foxy,wasnt calling you a sap,it was a play on the word "sap",I had used many botany words to make a silly paragraph..still have the text if u want to see it again..dont worry about it,it was a waste of time anyway.I thought it might give you a chuckle.
