The Royal Ann or Royal Anne (also called Napoleon, Napoleon Bigarreau and Queen Anne) is a variety of cherry, similar in appearance and taste to the 'Rainier cherry'.

In 1847, Henderson Lewelling brought 700 fruit trees of 'Napoleon Bigarreau' from Iowa to Oregon’s Willamette Valley to start a cherry orchard. Seth Lewelling joined his brother Henderson in 1850, he renamed the tree 'Royal Ann'. Seth later developed the 'Bing cherry'.

It is both eaten fresh and used in making pies and Maraschino cherries.
