The superior hardiness shown by Van and Sam trees as compared with other sweet cherries in Washington State following low temperatures in the fall and winter of 1955–56, has stimulated considerable interest in these varieties. Temperatures of zero or a few degrees below in mid-November caught many of the cherry trees in an immature state and severely damaged spurs, trunks, crotches and terminals of trees under 15 years of age and also old devitalized trees. Additional damage apparently resulted in February when temperatures as low as -12° F. occurred.
