great cropper especially on heavy soils, holds its fruit well up from the 
ground and generally succeeds everywhere.

without green tips and with quality similar to the Marshall. It

pistillate sorts.

conical glossy-red berries of delicious flavor. The plants are of 
strong healthy growth with large dark-green foliage. 
Longfellow. The plants of this fine new variety are of vigorous 
growth and very productive. Fruit highly colored, conical in shape 
and inclined to be long. 
Marshall. The fruit of this remarkable sort is of enormous size, 
of handsome, glossy, dark crimson color, and of delicious flavor. It 
is one of the best midseason berries, either for private use or market. 
It is a vigorous grower and requires good soil and high cultivation. 
As it does not thrive in all soils, it should not be planted extensively 
until its adaptability is ascertained. 
New York. One of the best sorts for private or market gardens. The 
berries are large, of conical form; dark red color, firm texture and 
of remarkably sweet flavor. In the market they sell at sight.

fine for forcing.

late berry. The fruit is of handsome appearance and keeps well.

conical, deep crimson fruit, sweet and of quality equal to the well- 
known Bubach. Not only an extra large berry, but also very pro- 
ductive, of deep rich color and solid. It is smooth and quite juicy.

with rich dark green foliage. The fruit is of large size, deep red 
in color and of a rich aromatic flavor.

vigor to the later crop.
