tered Situation. When 'this Sort is 

 planted again ft North Walls, the 

 Fruit may be continued till Augujl ; 

 but thefe muft be protected from the 

 Birds, otherwife they will deftroy 

 them. 



The Htrtfordfeire Cherry, which 

 is a Sort of Duke Cherry, but a 

 firmer and better- flavoured Fruit, 

 will not ripen earlier than the End 

 of July t or the Beginning of Augujl ; 

 which makes it the more valuable, 

 for coming when the other Cherries 

 are gone. This is not very common 

 in the Nurferies as yet ; but as it is 

 one of the beft Kinds of Cherries, 

 it is not to be doubted but in a fhort 

 time it will be as common as any 

 of the other Sorts. 



The Morello Cherry, which is ge- 

 nerally planted to North Afpecb, 

 and the Fruit commonly ufed for 

 Preferving, vet, if they were plant- 

 ed t6 a better Afpecl, and fulfered 

 to hang upon the Trees until they 

 are thoroughly ripe., is a very good 

 Fruit for the Table : therefore two 

 or three of the Trees of this Sort 

 fhould have Place where there is 

 plenty of Walling, upon a South- 

 well Wall, where they will ripen 

 perfeclly by the Middle of Augujl ; 

 at which time they will be an ac- 

 ceptable Fruit. 



The Carnation Cherry is alio va- 

 luable for coming late in the Sea- 

 ion : this is a very firm fleihy Fruit ; 

 but is not the beft Bearer. This Sort 

 will ripen very well on Efpaliers ; 

 and, by this means, the Fruit may 

 be continued longer in the Seafon. 



The large SpaxiJJ? Cherry is nearly 

 allied to the Duke Cherry, from 

 which it feems to be only a Variety 

 accidentally obtained : this ripens 

 foon after the common Duke Cherry, 

 and very often paftes for it. 



The yellow Spo.nijr Cherry is of 

 an. o^al Shape, and of an Amber- 



c E 



colour : this ripens late, and is a 

 fweet Cherry, but not of a rich Fla- 

 vour ; and being but a middling 

 Bearer, is not often admitted into 

 curious Gardens, unlefs where Va- 

 riety is chiefly confulted. 



The Corone, or Coroun Cherry, 

 is fomewhat like the Black-heart, but 

 a little rounder : this is a very good 

 Bearer, and an excellent Fruit ; fo 

 mould have a Place in every good 

 Fruit-garden : this ripens the Middle 



of>/v. 



The Lukeward ripens foon after 

 the Corone Cherry : this is a good 

 Bearer, and a very good Fruit : it is' 

 of a dark Colour, rot fo black as 

 the Corone : this will da well in 

 Standards. 



The Black Cherry is feldom graft- 

 ed or budded ; but is generally fown 

 for Stocks, to graft the other Kinds 

 of Cherries upon : but where Per- 

 fons are curious to have the beft-fla- 

 voured of this Sort of Fruit, they 

 mould be propagated by grafting 

 from fuch Trees as produce the belt 

 Fruit. This Sort of Cherry is fre- 

 quently planted in WildernefTes, 

 where it will grow to a large Size ; 

 and, at the time of its flowering, will 

 make a Variety ; and the Fruit will 

 be Food for the Birds. 



The Double-flowering Cherry is 

 alfo propagated for the Beauty of 

 the Flowers, which are extremely 

 fine, the Flowers being as double 

 and large as a Cinnamon rofe ; and 

 thefe being produced in largcBunches 

 on every Part of the Tree, render it 

 one of the moil beautiful Trees of 

 the Spring. Some of the Flowers, 

 which are lei's double,will often pro- 

 duce fome Fruit, which the very 

 double Fiov. ers will not : but this 

 Defect is fufiiciently recompens'd in 

 the Beauty of its Flowers. This is 

 propagated by Budding or Grafting 

 on the Black or Wild-cherry Stock ;
