The Cherry succeeds on most soils and in nearly all localities throughout this country, but attains its greatest perfection upon those of a light, gravelly or sandy nature, provided they are in good condition. In planting Hearts and Bigarreaus, avoid wet or damp situa- tions. The Dukes and Morellos will bear more moisture, but will flourish best in a soil that grows the others to the greatest perfection. We have dwarf trees grown upon the CerasKS Mahaleb stock, a variety of Cherry imported from Europe, which is rather more hardy than our common sorts. When worked upon this stock they are well suited to gardens or smal enclosures, as they occupy but little space, and come into bearing quite early. HEART AND BIGARREAU CHERRIES. 'Bigarreau, or Graffion. {Yellow Spanish.) Very large, often an inch in diameter ; pale yellow, with a handsome, light red cheek to the sun ; flesh firm, with a fine, rich flavor. This variety, though not of the highest excellence, has become, from its great size, beauty and productiveness, a general favorite. July. Black: Tartarian. Fruit of the largest size, frequently measuring an inch in diameter; flesh dark, half tender, with a peculiar liver-like consistency, rich, nearly destitute of acid, of fine flavor. The vigorous growth and great productiveness of the tree, and the large size and mild, sweet flavor of the fruit, render this variety a general favorite. June. Black Eagle. Large ; black, very rich and high flavored. The tree grows well, and is very productive. June. Black Heart. Rather above medium size ; flesh tender, juicy, with a rich, sweet flavor; very productive. June. Belle d'Orleans. A foreign variety; fruit of medium size ; color
