BAUMFORTHS' 
SEEDLING 
RASPBERRY. 
um new and splendid Raspberry 
has now so thoroughly established itself a 
popular favourite with the growers for market, 
the gentleman's table, and especially the ex- 
hibitor, throughout the Kingdom, that it is 
almost superfluous now to make a repetition of 
its merits in detail. Suffice it to say, during the 
time I have had the pleasure of introducing it, 
I have been favoured with orders for over 
150,000 plants, which are distributed over all 
parts of the world, and the hundreds of volun- 
tary testimonials received in its favonr fully 
confirm my previous description of its sterling 
properties, and entitle it to be classed the most 
popular and finest variety of Raspberry in 
cultivation, alike for produce, size, deep crimson 
colour, quality, and strong, robust constitution. 
I have selected the following from the 
numerous Testimonials I have received :— 
From MR. HUGH LYNCH, Gardener to Lord Beaumont, 
Carlton Towers. 
“Т have grown me famous Raspberry, *'Baumforth's 
Seedling," "the last four years, and am leased to to inform you 
t I am tho йе satisfied with I find it nearly a 
fortnight earlier than the good old Filibesket, the fruit much 
larger, and with a far superior flavou e had it in 
competition at the best local D the las ears, anc 
have always se d the firs v pri ze; dnd r would advise all 
who are intending planting F itatrial. My 
experience of it is, that Baumforth’ 8 Seedling has no equal."
