The compact shapeliness of cherry trees, 
their glossy foliage, and spring glory of clus- 
tered blossoms, gives them ornamental value 
even in the lawn. 
The trees are naturally hardy, succeeding 
best on sandy or gravelly loam, well drained. 
Avoid low or wet ground. Sweet varieties grow 
more rapidly and make larger pyramidal trees. 
Set trees 18 to 20 feet apart. The sour varie- 
ties are dwarf and bushy, bear earlier, and are 
more largely planted. Set trees 15 to 18 feet 
apart.
