Our 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, liambert 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 lessor 

 degree, depending on seasonal bloom period varia- 

 tion.
