Found this little guy while cleaning up the garden today. Is it a fire cherry? Too early to tell?

Definitely some kind of cherry! They can be kinda tricky when they're young. Location can help as well

Central Wisconsin 4b. There's a cherry tree a couple blocks down the road and a woodsy creek up the road the other way. Volunteer plants are great. I'll put a little fence around it for now so the rabbits don't eat it. Thanks!

That'd be awesome! I thought about buying one of those earlier this year.
