Eemarks — Yery large, a great bearer, pxilpy and deli- 

 cious flavor. It loves a cool, moist, rich soil, is easily 

 cultivated, and is everywhere becoming a universal favor- 

 ite. Adopted by the Congress of Fruit Growers. The 

 "New Eochelle Blackberry " sends up, annually, large 

 and vigorous, upright shoots, with lateral branches, all 

 of which, under common cultivation, will be crowded 

 with fine fruit; a portion ripens daily, in most seasons, 

 for six weeks, commencing about the first of July. They 

 are perfectly hardy, always thrifty and productive, and 

 have not been found liable to blight, or injury by insects. 

 To produce berries of the very largest, they should have 

 a heavy, damp soil, and shade. This will be a good 

 starting point for seedlings. It is a most valuable im- 

 provement in this fruit.

American Black. ' 



Eemarks. — Not very productive — better shaded. We 

 will here observe, that this valuable variety is seldom cul- 

 tivated as it should be — that it bears transportation to 

 market, without injury, that it grows well in all soils, amd 

 Tinder almost any mode of culture ; that with extra atten- 

 tion, and manure, the Common White and Eed Dutch, 

 yield fine crops.
