Ever wonder how the Bing cherry got its name?

Nope, it’s not short for “bingo” or “bling” - it’s named after a 7-foot-tall orchard legend named Bing. 😲👏

Back in the late 1800s, cherry grower Seth Lewelling created this sweet ...variety and named it after his Manchurian foreman and friend, Bing.

(Let's be honest... a cherry this iconic needed an equally iconic name.)
