JAPAN WEEPING ROSE-FLOWERED CHERRY. 



(From a photograph of a specimen on our grounds?) 



Among trees of drooping habit there is none more beautiful than the one represented by the illustration annexed- The beauty 

 of the tree consists not only in its graceful pendulous habit, but it has besides the merit of producing quantities of flowers in the 

 blossoming season, and the branches when covered with these give the tree a novel, interesting and charming effect, as will be seen 

 from the picture. The foliage of the tree, too is handsome. This tree is well suited for either large or small places, and should be 

 planted by itself, where it can have room to develop. By cutting, it can be confined to a small space, and if permitted to grow it will 

 cover considerable ground in the course of time. No drooping tree of recent introduction has more nierits than this.
