PRUNUS, YOSHINO (Yedoensis). A fast-growing Flowering Cherry with smooth, 
pale gray bark which becomes darker and rougher in old trees. The single flowers 
are slightly fragrant, pure white, and set in clusters appearing in advance of the 
foliage. 
PRUNUS, KWANZAN. This variety is variously known as Sekizan Lakura, Setizan, 
Kansan, Flisakura, and Sekiyama. Red buds open to deep pink flowers, 2 inches 
across, in pendent clusters of 2 or 4. It is one cf the best of the deep-colored sorts.

To call this exceedingly 
decorative small tree a glori¬ 
fied apple tree when in bloom 
is hardly fair, for it is far 
better than that. The blooms 
vary in intensity of pink from 
season to season, but are 
always so richly abundant as 
to arrest attention. The com¬ 
pact habit of the tree, and its 
pleasing quality when out of 
bloom, even in winter, com¬ 
mend it as a lawn item of the 
highest quality. Completely 
hardy, it is also able to 
endure light shade, and is 
well placed at the border of 
a lawn or in contrast with 
good evergreens.

One “common” name for 
this very lovely native tree 
is “Judas Tree,” which is 
absurd, for its branches are 
too slender for any suicide to 
use. It is truly a Red-bud, 
and the unique way in which 
the buds cluster into the 
structure of the small tree 
gives it high garden value. Its 
all-summer foliage is very 
pleasingly rounded.
