CHERRIES.— Cerisiers. 



50 CENTS EACH. 



The trees of the Heart and Bigarreau Classes {Prunus Cerasus) grow rapidly, and are lofty and pyramidal, often 

 spreading widely at the base ; their fruit is more or less heart-shaped, and (with but few exceptions) 1 arge and beau- 

 tiful ; the former is tender and melting, and the latter firm and crisp. The Duke and Morello Classes (Prunus 

 avium), are of slower growth and of lower stature, the latter the most so ; they are of a rounded or short coni- 

 cal form, and the branches more slender; the fruit of both classes is rounded, the former acid or subacid, be^ 

 coming at maturity sufficiently sweet and pleasant for the dessert; the latter quite tart even at maturity, with 

 some astringency, and a slight degree of bitterness, estimable for tarts, preserves, and liqueurs, and when 

 fully ripe, possessing a sprightly pungent flavor which is to many particularly agreeable. The two last named 

 Classes being originally from a more northern climate, are consequently the most hardy. There has long ex- 

 isted much confusion between the Heart and Bigarreau Classes, which had its origin with English pomologista, 

 and by which Robert Manning and others have been misled. These errors we have now corrected.
