Large shining black, very handsome, rich flavour ; one 



of the best for forcing or cherry house, and valuable 



for wall ; as an Orchard Tree it requires close pruning 



for 3 or 4 years, and then forms a grand tree. The 



fruit makes a very high price in markets. 

 A valuable orchard or garden kind for first crops ; does 



well in heavy soil ; sweet flavour ; large. 

 A remarkably fine-flavoured dark Bigarreau, very large ; 



new. F.C.C., R.H.S. 

 Larger than the Kentish, best flavoured for tarts or 



preserving ; makes a neat orchard tree, and most 



fertile Pyramid on Mahaleb, or trained on a wall. 

 Enormous ; succeeds as a Standard, and makes large 



prices, and is invaluable on a wall, and very handsome ; 



late. Wellington of the market. 

 Fine late Black, extra. F.C.C., R.H.S. Dwarfs, 2/6. 

 Great bearer, very large, fine and delicious variety, good 



in any form ; grand as pot plants ; apt to gum in 



Orchards liable to frost ; worth a wall. 

 One of the sweetest and best early Dukes. 

 A very fine late sort, of bright colour and good flavour ; 



new. Dwarfs, 2/6. 

 Great bearer, rich for preserving or tarts; makes a 



fertile Pyramid on the Mahaleb stock; pronounced 



ratafia flavour. See note. 

 Fruit large, great bearer, refreshing juicy garden 



variety ; succeeds on Mahaleb. 

 An abundant bearer on a wall, one of the best early 



orchard sorts ; good as pot tree, succeeding admirably 



on Mahaleb or as a Cordon. 

 Valuable for preserving and bottling. Pyramid trees 



produce fruit equal to that from a wall. Succeeds on 



north walls, and is occasionally planted as a Standard. 

 Richer than the Morella, smaller, and succeeds in the 



open as a bush or Standard. 

 Very large and handsome, with tender melting flesh; 



fine pot tree. 

 Continental variety, very early, and fine for cooking. 

 A very rich early Duke. 

 Succeeds May Duke, large and excellent ; valuable for 



pots and wall culture. 

 A remarkably fine wall cherry, coming long after the 



usual season ; for garden culture only. F.C.C , 



R.H.S. 

 Very rich, luscious fruit, early and good bearer; for 



market or garden growth ; keeps good on the tree 



three weeks, and does not crack in rainy seasons. 

 Large, an American variety, reddish black, vigorous, 



and productive ; very firm, and of fine quality. 



The hardiest for Orchard, Standards are marked ", the remainder for garden or wall culture. 



It is not a fact as stated that the Kentish Red Cherries are fast dying out ; many thousands of trees 

 have been sent out from these Nurseries, and very strong young orchards are to be seen on all sides. They 

 retain vigour about 30 years, when the largest boughs break off and the trees shoot again from below, form 

 fresh heads, and bear 20 years more. This variety is a sweetmeat when preserved or dried, and there is none 

 equal to it for tarts. The Flemish is similar but later.
