230 THE CHERRY. 



KENTISH. 



Late Kentish, I Common Red, I Kentish Red- 



Pie Cherry, | Common Sour Cherry, 1 



This is probably a seedling of this country, which is found everywhere that man has cleared 

 the forest. Throughout the West, it appears as though it had been among the household goods 

 brought by first settlers, and that, wherever planted, it has grown, and by suckers, increased 

 44 seventy fold." It is hardy, and fruits abundantly; and many think it indispensable, but not 

 after having grown and fruited the Early Richmond. Fruit, medium size, round, lively red ; 

 tender, juicy, acid. Middle to last July. 



KNIGHT'S LATE BLACK. 

 Medium to large, roundish heart shape ; flesh, half tender, sweet, dry. Middle July.

 Yellow or Golden, | Spanish or Yellow. 



Fruit, small, heart shape, yellow ; flesh, firm, dry. Middle July. 



LARGE DOUBLE FLOWERING. 



A beautiful ornamental tree, with large, showy, double white flowers, like little roses, with- 

 out fruit, and therefore placed here, as unworthy cultivation, on account of fruit. As an orna- 

 mental tree, it is beautiful when in flower.

 July.

REMINGTON. 



Remington "White Heart, | Remington Heart. 

 Fruit, small, heart shape, yellow ; flesh, dry, bitter sweet. Middle of August. 



RUMSEY'S LATE MORELLO. 



This variety matures its fruit late ; but we have been unable to find qualities in it worthy of 

 extensive, or even moderate growing ; the pit is too large, and the tree a miserable grower. 

 Fruit, medium, roundish heart shape, lively red, juicy, acid. August.
