The drooping varieties are especially adapted to beautify small grounds. As single specimens on the lawn they are unique and handsome, and require only to be better known in order to be extensively planted. Now that the Kilmarnock Weeping Willow is no longer rare, its place may well be filled with the Japan Weeping Cherry, which is equally ornamental, and is unquestionably destined to become just as popular. C acida var. semperflorens pendula. Ever-flow- ERiNG Weeping Cherry. C. A fine drooping variety, that bears fruit and flowers all summer. $ C. avivmi var. flore alba plena. Large Double- elowering Cherry. B. At the period of flow- ering in May, a remarkably beautiful and attrac- tive tree. The flowers are so numerous as to conceal the branches, and present to the eye nothing but a mass of bloom, each flower resembling a miniature rose. A valuable variety, deser\ang of wide dissemination. See Cut. 50c. C. caproniana ranunculiflora. RANUNCUiiUS-iiiKE Plowering Cherry. C. An iipright grower, producing large, double white flowers, resembling those of a Ranunculus. An important addition. Flowers several days later than the Double White.
