 brownish red, covered with minute pale dots, and becoming almost

An excellent cherry ; ripe in the end of June and beginning of July. 

 The tree is a free grower and a pretty good bearer, and succeeds well 

 as a standard or against a wall. 



This variety was raised by T. A. Knight, Esq., in 1815, and was named from 

 having produced fruit a few weeks after the occurrence of the Battle of Waterloo. 

 It was raised from the Bigarreau impregnated with the pollen of the May Duke.

WEEPING BLACK BIGARREAU (Bigarreau Pleureur; Bigar- 

 reau Noir Monstrueux Pleureur}. This is a large Black Bigarreau, 

 about a fortnight earlier in ripening than the common Bigarreau, and 

 it is distinguished from every other by the weeping habit of the tree, 

 which makes it very ornamental.
