-144 THE RASPBERRY. 



Canes, moderately strong, yellowish green, becoming pale brown 

 early in autumn, covered below with dark brown spines, but the 

 upper portions, especially of the bearing wood, nearly smooth. Ripens 

 from 1st to 10th July. The canes need protection in winter through- 

 out northern sections, in order to secure a full crop. 



YELLOW ANTWERP. 



White Antwerp, | Double-bearing Yellow. 



This variety is only suited to small gardens, and even there we 

 presume will soon give place to the Col. Wilder and Orange. It 

 sometimes throws up a succession of shoots, maturing fruit for a long 

 time, whence its synonym of Double-bearing. Shoots, strong, light 

 yellow, with greenish spines ; fruit, large, conical, pale yellow, sweet, 

 and excellent. Requires protection in winter. In our Southern 

 States the Antwerp varieties are said to fail.

 large, round, deep crimson, solid, adheres firmly to the stem, keeps 

 long in perfection on the plant, and bears carriage well ; spines, red.
