nope !!! they are two different genera , cherry belongs to genus Prunus from family Rosaceae and kafal( box myrtle) to genus Myrica. In nepal ppl also refer Kimbu(mulberry) as kafal too, which is different than the proper kafal we are talking about.

Is the second picture (referred to as Kimbu) of "aishelu"?

If I'm not wrong, raspberries are aiselu. If other person know better, correct me, if I'm wrong. It is different from kimbu, though they are same family fruit.
