RASPBERRIES. 737 



Knevett's Antwerp. See Red Antwerp. 



KNEVETT'S GIANT. Fruit, large ; obtuse conical, deep red, and 

 of good flavour. A summer bearer. 



LAKGE MONTHLY (Large-fruited Monthly; Rivers's Monthly; 

 De Tons le Mois a Gros Fruits Routjes). This is a most abundant- 

 bearing autumnal variety, producing fruit above the medium size ; 

 roundish conical, of a crimson colour, and of excellent flavour. 



McLAREN'S PROLIFIC. Fruit, large ; roundish, inclining to 

 conical, of a very deep crimson colour, very fleshy and juicy, with 

 a brisk and pleasant flavour. 



A double-bearing variety, of robust growth, and producing enormous 

 second crops on the young shoots of the same season. 



Large Red. See Barnet. 



Late-bearing Antwerp. See Red Antwerp. 



Lawton. See New Rochelle. 



LORD BEACONSFIELD. The fruit is large, highly coloured, and 

 of excellent flavour, and the plant is an abundant bearer. 



Lord Exmouth's. See Barnet. 



MAGNUM BONUM. A yellow summer-bearing variety, inferior in 

 size and flavour to Yellow Antwerp. The fruit is of a pale yellow 

 colour, with firm flesh. The plant, like Brinckle's Orange and Belle 

 de Fontenay, becomes a perfect weed from the profusion of suckers it 

 throws up. 



Merveille de Quatre Saisons Jaune. See October Yellow. 

 Merveille de Quatre Saisons Rouge. See October Red. 



NEW ROCHELLE (Lawton; Seacor's Mammoth}. An American 

 autumn-bearing variety, having the rambling habit of growth of the 

 common Bramble. It produces fruit in great abundance, of a large 

 oval shape and a deep black colour, very juicy, and agreeably 

 flavoured. 



This has not been sufficiently proved in this country to admit of a 

 correct estimate being formed of its merits. 



NORTHUMBERLAND FILLBASKET. Fruit, rather large ; 

 roundish, inclining to conical, of a deep red colour and good flavour. 

 The plant is a strong, vigorous grower, and an abundant summer 

 bearer. 



OCTOBER RED (Merveille de Quatre Saisons Rouge}. The fruit of 

 this variety produced from the old canes left in spring is small and 

 inferior ; but the suckers put forth in June furnish an abundant crop
