THE GREAT BIGARREAU CHERRY, 
worked from the original tree, an outline and description of 
which was given in the “ Horticulturist” of January', 1851 
In an extract from that artiele, the lamented A. J. Downing 
says:—‘ The Great Bigarrea.u, is unquestionably the 
largest and most beautiful of all cherries, and appears to be 
scarcely at all known to pomologists. A foreign variety— 
perhaps more distinct than any other large cherry', in its fo¬ 
liage, growth and the size, excellence and color of its fruit, 
which is equal to the Black Tartarian in flavor, and sur- 
surpasses it in beauty and productiveness, certainly should 
not be unknown to American pomologists. Lindley M. Fer¬ 
ris, Nursery r man, Coldenham, Orange co , N. Y., first as¬ 
tonished us by bringing branches of this tree in full, laden 
with superb fruit, two years ago. Supposing- we should be 
able to identify it with some foreign variety, we made a draw¬ 
ing and description of it at the time, and waited to make fur¬ 
ther research on the subject. So far, our labor for two sea¬ 
sons has been in vain, to identify it with any oilier sort, and we 
now publish the description to introduce what we think the 
most magnificent of Cherries, to the notice of our fruit 
growers.” Price 50 cents a piece, or $35 per hundred. All 
other cherries 30 cents each, or $25 per hundred. 
Trees packed in moss, with great care, for transportation, 
and delivered at Newburgh, from which place boats go dai¬ 
ly', to New-York, Albany' and Troy. Catalogues will be 
furnished 1o applicants. LTNDLEY M. FERRIS.
