Do cherry trees send out suckers?

We recently bought a house that has a lovely cherry tree in the front yard. I've been working in the yard this week, weeding, pruning, etc., and I noticed that in the area around the cherry tree there are a bunch of smaller versions of the tree, two of which are growing up through gravel. I don't think they came from fruit that dropped, but they might have. I was wondering if cherry trees send up suckers from their roots, to make little trees. At a past house, we had aspens that tended to colonize this way.
