Abstract
Virus-free budwood of sweet cherry varieties—Bing, Black Tartarian, Napoleon or Royal Ann, Black Republican, Deacon, and Lambert—have been propagated in experimental plantings at Davis. Sufficient fruit has been produced on the trees to determine trueness to variety. However, insufficient time has elapsed to obtain data on mature tree performance in California of the clones obtained from other states.
