EBONY KING 



The sensational new, heavy bearing blacltberry that is proving 

 superior to the older varieties because o£ its ability to bear con- 

 sistent heavy crops. Also contributing to the popularity of this 

 fine variety is the fact that non-bearing plants are easily dis- 

 tinguished and may be removed from the planting when neces- 

 sary. Berries are large, glossy-black, with very high dessert quali- 

 ty. Fruit is suitable for processing, home use, and for fresh fruit 

 markets. Fruit ripens early. Plants are thrifty and hardy. Plant

THE EBONY KING BLACKBERRY 



BOYSENBERRY 



A giant of the blackberry type. More flavorful than the black 

 berry and can be picked over a longer period of time. Yields ar( 

 extremely high giving as much as 20 baskets of berries the sec 

 ond year after planting. The plant is a vigorous grower anc 

 should not be planted closer than six feet apart and seems t( 

 do much better when trained on wires similar to grapes. Plants 

 are especially resistant to disease and drought. Try them this year

LAVACA BERRY 



A wonderful new seedling of the Boysenberry found near 

 Lavaca, Arkansas, resembling its parent most but having higher 

 production, larger berries, and more resistance to cold and dis- 

 ease. The berries are firmer than the Boysenberry, less acid, 

 and higher general quality. Also superior for freezing. We feel 

 it to be a handsome addition to your small fruits planting.

 as the Boysenberry as they are almost identical in size and general 

 structure, the LAVACA berry being slightly larger and much 

 firmer, and reportedly more hardy and heavier producer.
