Photographs include the President Reagan Cherry Tree (which Jefferson propagated from the 1912 Japanese cherry tree that First Lady Taft planted), its presentation to Japan by First Lady Nancy Reagan, its planting in Japan, and its growth. Other photographs are of the cherry trees in New York City's Central Park, plant signs from the United States National Arboretum that Jefferson designed, and the first three United States National Arboretum botanists in charge of plant records. The headshots of Jefferson included in this series were collected by Cunningham. Additional photographs are found within the Series II. Expeditions and Series III. Projects to preserve the original order of those series. This series is arranged chronologically.
