The Cherries of New York or Varieties of Heirloom Cherry Trees

This special re-print edition of U.P. Hedrick's book "The Cherries of New York" is a guide to cherry tree varieties and cherry cultivation. Written in 1915, this classic text provides insight into the cultivation of cherries, as well as their varieties. Chapters include Cultivated Cherries, The History of Cultivated Cherries, Cherry Culture, Leading Varieties of Cherries, Minor Varieties of Cherries and more. Included are insights into numerous heirloom varieties of cherries that were grown in New York and surrounding states. Lavishly illustrated with historic plates depicting heirloom cherry varieties.
