CHERRY. 
Not difficult to grow, but the trees are best adapted 
to well drained rich soil. The sour varieties grow 
more readily than the sweets, but you can have both 
if your location is good. Be sure to plant the trees 
as soon as they arrive—don’t let them lie around. 
Press the dirt firmly around the roots; tramp it hard. 
Prune the same as apples or pears, but do not cut the 
central leaders.
