Our 1 Year Sweet Cherries Are Fine This Year 



SWEET 



CHERRY TREES 



NOTE — Sweet Cherries bear heavier and more reg- 

 ular where properly cross pollinated and two or 

 more varieties should be planted together. 



Again note that Napoleon, Bing, Lambert and Em- 

 peror Francis are incompatible and a third variety 

 should be planted with them. 



Sour Cherries are generally self fruitful and will 

 cross pollinate Sweet Cherries to a greater or lesser 

 degree, depending on seasonal bloom period varia- 

 tion.

A new sweet cherry coming 

 to us from the orchards of 

 INIr. Hiram Burkholder, Clyde, Ohio. Mr. Burkholder 

 for years has tested many varieties of new fruits to de- 

 termine the finer varieties for the fruit grower and the 

 Black Russian Cherry is an outstanding example. In 

 tree habit it is a vigorous grower, very hardy and high- 

 ly productive. The tree under his conditions has shown 

 no injury at temperatures of 15 to 20 degrees below 

 zero, nor has late spring frosts during bloom period af- 

 fected the crop materially. The fruit is medium in size, 

 very firm, juicy and sweet, keeps well over long periods 

 and does not crack or show tendency to brown rot be- 

 fore picking. The fruit is very dark in color being al- 

 most black. Flesh leaves pit readily. The flavor is 

 distinctive, aromatic and delightful. We recommend 

 this new cherry for trial in all sections where sweet 

 cherries can be grown. Trees extremely limited. We 

 reserve right to limit quantities. Same prices as other 

 sweet cherries. 



BLACK RUSSIAN 



SWEET lEFTEMBER CHERRY 



There is no previous record in the history of Horti- 

 culture of a fall-bearing cherry until accidentally dis- 

 covered by an amateur Horticulturist in Northwestern 

 Ohio. This sweet cherry tree, for some unknown reason, 

 ripens in September instead of June. The tree blossoms 

 at the same time as other standard varieties and is ap- 

 parently hardier in the bud than average sweet cher- 

 ries. The fruits are an attractive medium dark red sim- 

 ilar to the Windsor, deliciously sweet, excellent for eat- 

 ing fresh or canning. It ripens in Ohio from about 

 September first until • snow flies, which makes it valu- 

 able for roadside markets, as the fruit can be sold over 

 a long period of time.
