Abstract

The cultivated sweet cherry is not native to America, but was introduced into this country from its home in southern Europe by the early settlers. The birds became very fond of the fruit and soon spread fruits and seeds over the countryside and wild trees became common along fence rows and borders of woods. These wild trees of the sweet cherry, which is of the species, Prunus avium, are often known as "mazzards", both in this country and in Europe.
