PLANT BOUNTIFUL RIDGE SELECTED RASPBERRY PLANTS 



FOR INCREASED PRODUCTION 



Plant Tliis Year to Meet An Ever Increasing Market Demand For One of America's Most 



Popular Small Fruits. 



LATHAM (Red) 



Leads all Red Ra'spberries in Conunercial Planting 

 and Profits to the Grower. 



The new mosiac free, hardy red raspberry. "Without 

 question Latham is the most profitable Red Raspberry for 

 commercial planting. It is absolutely hardy. It cannot be 

 surpassed in productiveness, out-yielding even Cuthbert. 

 Due to its rich brilliant red color it sells readily on market 

 stands, and in addition is a delightful table berry and al- 

 most perfect for canning. The berries are large, round and 

 unusually firm, exceptionally well suited for shipping to 

 distant markets. It ripens evenly over a long season. 



We have some of the finest Latham plants we have ever 

 grown this year. 



SUNRISE 



(The New Red Raspberry) 

 Combining Earliness — Hardiness — Quality 



This new berry is said to ripen 10 to 16 days earlier than 

 Latham. Its size is intermediate between Ranere and 

 Latham, but nearer the size of Latham. 



It has been very resistant to anthracnose, leaf spot, cane 

 blight, and the resistance shown is probably one of the 

 important factors in its ability to withstand low temp- 

 eratures. 



The color is bright red but turns dark red on ripening — 

 the berries pick easily. They are firm, fine textured, juicy, 

 non-crumbly, mild sub-acid in flavor with good raspberry 

 aroma, and better in quality than Latham and better than 

 Ranere under some circumstances. 



We recommend SUNRISE for trial in all sections where 

 Red Raspberries do well. Sunrise is replacing Chief in many 

 home and commercial plantings.

TAYLOR RED RASPBERRY 



DISEASE RESISTANT — HIGH QUALITY 

 HEAVY PRODUCTION 



Recommended To Precede Lathatu 



Introduced by N. Y. Experimental Station fall season of 

 1935. This beautiful berry should have the consideration of 

 every commercial raspberry grower. 



The plants are vigorous, hardy, productive, tall growing 

 and make new plants rapidly. The sturdy canes hold the 

 berries well off the ground. The berries ripen shortly be- 

 fore Latham, are large, long conic, bright attractive red, 

 thick fleshed, very firm, sub-acid and of excellent quality 

 being superior to Latham. The berries do not cling to the 

 bush and carry well to markets. 



INDIAN SUMMER 



SENSATIONAL NEW EVERBEARING 

 RED RASPBERRY 



Finest of all everbearing types yet introduced, bear- 

 ing two crops a year. 



High Quality — Early Season — Heavier Fruiting 

 — Hardier — More Disease Resistant. 



More satisfactory every year as fruited over a wider area. 

 Many growers planting Indian Summer for one crop variety 

 due to its unusual vigor and productivity. 



Introduced by the N. Y. Experimental Station, who state: 

 "Indian Summer, the first autumn variety of any merit that 

 has fruited at this station, is a distinct type wholly unlike 

 and much superior to known varieties. The quality is good 

 and the season very early, starting a day or two later than 

 June varieties. The fall crop commences in mid-September, 

 continuing until stopped by hard freezes in November. The 

 bulk of the crop is borne in October." The plants are above 

 medium to tall, vigorous, upright, hardy, healthy, produc- 

 tive. Fruit is large and uniform, maintaining size through- 

 out the season. Roundish-conic in shape, cavity of medium 

 size, smooth light bloom, color medium red, juicy, tender, 

 mild sub-acid, good.. 



From our observations and personal tests we can recom- 

 mend trial planting in all sections from South Carolina to 

 Canada, feeling that lovers of Red Raspberries will find the 

 best in this variety. 



St. Regis Everbearing (Red Ranere) 



The Old Standby of Everbearing Raspberries. 



The outstanding everbearing variety. It gives a crop of 

 fruit all summer and autumn^ fruiting on the old canes in 

 generous quantities until late in August. By this time ber- 

 ries begin to ripen on the young canes and continue until 

 late in autumn. Berries are a bright crimson, of larger size 

 and surprising quality; sugary with raspberry flavor. 



The spring crop ripens before other varieties, and in the 

 South where it is grown extensively it yields a very heavy 

 crop early and few berries in the fall. Noted for its disease 

 resistance and ability to crop when planted in sandy soil. 

 A fine market berry for all sections.
