My Mother's Ambrosia Fruit Salad

Many people in our area make a very sweet ambrosia salad with sweetened condensed milk and fruit cocktail, but my mother liked a cooling and fresh salad over a super sweet one. Here is the one she made for us for Christmas each year.
1 c. crushed pineapple
1 c. pineapple tidbits, drained
1 c. mandarin oranges
1 c. minature marshmallows
1 c. coconut flakes
1 c. chopped pecans
1 c. sour cream
a handful of maraschino cherries

Mix and chill at least 2 hours. Sometimes she would add a sliced banana right before serving. If you put the banana in at the beginning, the banana will turn brown.
