ANDREWS ‘ew KOREAN CHERRIES 
The New 
Korean Cherries * * « 
A Splendid Ornamental Bush 
Producing Delicious Pie Cherries 
You will be surprised and delighted with these new 
Korean cherries. The bushes grow only 3 to 3)4 feet 
tall. They are distinctly ornamental but they also bear 
loads of delicious full-sized cherries usually at the tender 
age of 2 years. 
A wild form of this cherry is a tough, hardy native 
of Korea. Our horticulturists at the Minnesota State 
Fruit Breeding Farm recognized possibilities for improve- 
ment. After years of selection, testing, and improving 
they developed these sturdy little specimens that have 
surprised and delighted all who have seen them. Our 
stocks of this new cherry are propagated from the State’s 
most choice selections. 
TRULY ORNAMENTAL 
The bush of this Korean cherry resembles the popular 
flowering almond in appearance. They are a credit to 
any landscape planting. You can plant them around the 
foundation, in the shrub border, the screen planting, or 
in the garden. 
Professor Alderman says: ‘The bushes carry a mass 
of white bloom in the early spring, have a fine delicate 
foliage, and in the latter half of August make a brilliant 
display with their loads of red fruit.” The foliage also 
has attractive autumn coloring. 
A DELICIOUS PIE CHERRY 
You would never suspect these little bushes could carry 
such loads of full sized cherries that resemble the regular 
pie cherry shipped by carloads from cherry sections of 
the country. These Koreans are perhaps a little sweeter 
and they make excellent pies and sauce and jelly. As 
Professor Alderman says: ‘“‘They are similar to the ordi- 
nary sour cherry of commerce and can be used for pies 
Small Bushes in the Shrub Border Bear Loads of Cherries and sauce in the same way as the ordinary sour cherry 
; a ay is used.” 
Now that it is possible to raise these fine cherries in 
your own yard or garden, it is not necessary to depend 
on the grocer. That will make a nice saving and give 
you fresher fruit with no waste. These attractive bushes 
fit well in any ornamental planting or in the garden. 



The New Koreans Bear Profusely 
Q ie 
Good Reports from Wisconsin 
H. J. Rahmlow, Secretary of the Wisconsin State Horticultural 
Society, who saw some of these Koreans fruiting in our plantings 
reported, “The No. 60 is a late maturing variety and the fruit 
is in good condition and of good quality the first of September. 
In fact, the fruit is considered equal to sour cherries and perhaps 
a little sweeter.” 
Praise from New Hampshire 
Dr. A. F. Yeager, of the New Hampshire Dept. of Horticul- 
ture, commenting on these new Koreans states that plants bore 
an abundant crop the second year. He said: “These were very 
nice to eat out of hand even in competition with regular sweet 
cherries.”
