Japanese Flowering Cherries 
We have for many years specialized in growing these Flowering Cherries. 
Early in April, when the single varieties start to bloom and later when the double varieties flower, 
thousands of people journey to Washington, D. C., to admire the wonderful display of Cherry blossoms 
along the Potomac Basin, or to Riverside Drive, New York City. 
This same colorful effect may be created with a few plants in your own garden. All Japanese Cherries 
are hardy and will grow well in almost any location, even in very shallow soils. They make splendid speci¬ 
mens for individual planting on the lawn, and the stronger-growing sorts are suitable for avenue trees.
