BUSH CHERRY 
The Cherry for the Bach Yard 
An Absolutely New Thing in Bush Cherries Offered 
for the First Time Five Years Ago 
The wild Bush Cherry of Korea was brought to the United 
States and bred up over a period of many years from the best 
of thousands and thousands of seedlings selected and re-selected 
until we now have a new Cherry that grows on a bush 214 to 3 
feet high that is almost indistinguishable in appearance from the 
bush of the Flowering Almond. 
A NEW MINNESOTA FRUIT 
FARM FRUIT 
This is a new fruit pro- 
duced by the Minnesota Fruit 
Farm and we believe it is go- 
ing to revolutionize Cherry 
growing in the middle north- 
west. 
THE BUSH 
The bush looks just like a 
nice, neat, upright grown 
Flowering Almond bush. It 
makes a very desirable shrub 
for planting about the house. 
Leaves medium dark green, 
turning to bright colors with 
frost and remaining on late 
in the fall. 

THE FRUIT IS A SURPRISE 
The fruit varies with different varieties from a bright red like 
that of the Early Richmond Cherry to a brownish red like that 
of Montmorency. Some kinds are round and about a half inch 
in diameter while other sorts average up in size and shape with 
the Early Richmond Cherry. In fact, we believe the two could 
be mixed and unless told, one would not notice the difference. 
GOOD TO EAT AND FINE TO CAN 
The fruit is just a trifle sharp in most varieties to eat from the 
hand but some varieties are very mild and verge toward the 
sweet. All make up into wonderful jams, jellies and sauces. 
We truly believe the Nanking and the Korean Bush Cherries 
in the course of a few years will be found in almost every far 
northern garden.

CHERRY JAM 
PRICE We use the Korean Cherry here at the nursery for making into jam and we can 
truthfully say it makes up into as fine a jam as one can make out of any fruit we 
know of. We would not callit a fruit to be eaten from the bush but for jam it has 
These should be planted in groups to insure fertilization. no superior and then it gives you a jam that is different.
