Remember that these bushes we offer and send out are 
not bushes propagated from seed. It is all a gamble as to 
what one gets from such bushes. Our bushes are all prop- 
agated either by budding or grafting exactly as standard Cher- 
ries and Plums are and one gets exactly what he purchases-— 
i. e. named Bush Cherries identical with the parent bush which 
we selected. 

Real Ornamental Bushes 
Though generally grown for the fruit, these Cherries are real 
ornamental bushes. The bush is very graceful and works nicely 
into ornamental plantings. The bush is very attractive through- 
out the year and especially so during the fall when the clean 
silvery green leaves turn to a rich bright red. 
In the spring the little bushes are absolutely covered with 
beautiful white bloom before the leaves appear and make a 
very pleasing sight.
