     Sekasikihymisen avul Micurin kehitti toomen ja mesimarjan sekasortun. Marjat siin istuut haaraas niin sakkiast ku i toomimarjat, mut maku ono mesimarjan.

     With the help of interbreeding Michurin developed a crossbreed of the bird cherry and the cherry. The berries sit on that branch as thick as a bird cherry, but the flavour is that of a cherry.
