Of the Bigarreau cherries this is one of the finest, both on account of its great size and its delicious flavor. The tree grows to a very large size, surpassing in this respect any other cultivated variety with which we are acquainted. It does not average very productive, because the fruit often blasts and drops, or is destroyed by Monilia. When, however, it does mature a good crop, the yield is enormous. The variety is of European origin, and was introduced into the United States in ISOO. Tree : very vigorous, of large growth ; liabit, spreading, fairly productive.
