How to buy cherries. It is unfortunate that the names of the flowering cherries are so confused in many nurseries and that there are so many synonyms. At present it is best, therefore, not to try to buy them true to name through a catalogue from any but the most reliable growers. If a group is wanted to give a particular range or combination of color, it is best to choose varieties when the plants are in bloom in the nursery where they are to be bought.There is a tendency for the white cherries to be neglected. Yet a white blossoming tree near one or two of the pink varieties makes a wonderful picture. A background of evergreens sets off the cherries to great advantage, and those who have seen the Washington plantings know how lovely they are near water.
