Regina is a cultivar of sweet cherry developed in Germany.
The Regina was developed at the Jork Fruit Research Station in Germany, and is considered the most successful sweet cherry cultivar to have been developed there. [1] First introduced in 1998, Regina is a cross of the 'Schneiders Spate Knorpelkirsche' and 'Rube' cultivars. [2] Apart from Europe, it is also grown commercially in Oregon [3]
The Regina tree is compact and upright, with dark green, toothed leaves. [4] It is not self-fertile, and is incompatible with the Van or Olympus cultivars. [2]
Regina is considered a late-season cherry, similar to the Lapins cherry, maturing about 10 days after Bing. [3] The cherries are large, with dark red skin and flesh, and have a sweet-tart flavor. They are highly resistant to rain-cracking. [2]

A cherry blossom, also known as Japanese cherry or sakura, is a flower of many trees of genus Prunus or Prunus subg. Cerasus.

They generally refer to ornamental cherry trees, not to be confused with cherry trees that produce fruit for eating. It is considered the national flower of Japan.
Kirschwasser or kirsch is a clear, colorless brandy traditionally made from double distillation of morello cherries, a dark-colored cultivar of the sour cherry. It is now also made from other kinds of cherries. The cherries are fermented completely, including their stones. Unlike cherry liqueurs and cherry brandies, kirschwasser is not sweet. It is sometimes distilled from fermented cherry juice.
German chocolate cake, originally German's chocolate cake, is a layered chocolate cake filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. Originating in the United States, it owes its name to an English-American chocolate maker named Samuel German, who developed a formulation of dark baking chocolate that came to be used in the cake recipe. It is not German by nationality. Sweet baking chocolate is traditionally used for the cake's flavor, but few recipes call for it today. The filling and/or topping is a custard made with egg yolks and evaporated milk; once the custard is cooked, coconut and pecans are stirred in. Occasionally, a chocolate frosting is spread on the sides of the cake and piped around the circumference of the layers to hold in the filling. Maraschino cherries are occasionally added as a garnish.
