THE LOVETT COMPANY, LITTLE SILVER, N. J. 7 



LOUDON. 



This is indeed a very valuable 

 variety. We have now tested it in 

 field culture and find it a strong 

 grower with beautiful foliage, ex- 

 ceedingly prolific and perfectly 

 hardy. The berries are very large 

 and beautiful; the richest and 

 finest in quality of any entirely 

 hardy and reliable variety in cul- 

 tivation. It is not very firm, how- 

 ever, and ripens with Cuthbert. 

 Were it earlier, a little brighter 

 in color and firmer, it would be 

 without a rival among Red Rasp- 

 berries. 

 Suckers, doz., 50c; 100, $2.50. 

 Transplanted, doz., 75c; 100, 

 $3.50. 1000 rates on application. 



KING. 



This candidate for public favor 

 has been fruited by us for a num- 

 ber of years having been sent to 

 us for testing by the originator in advance of being offered for saie. It affords us much pleasure to state that 

 it is indeed a grand variety. The berries are beautiful, very large, and of superior flavor; the canes are of 

 very strong growth and prolific. It is among the very first to ripen and is of a bright crimson, approaching 

 scarlet, in color. It is indeed a King among red raspberries. Transplanted plants, dozen, $2.00. 



GENERAL LIST. 



MILLER (Miller's Red.) 



Having taken 

 a prominent 

 part in the in- 

 troduction of 

 this raspberry 

 it is a peculiar 

 pleasure to be 

 able to record 

 that it has fully 

 sustained the 

 exalted claims 

 made for it. In 

 brief we have 

 in it a thor- 

 oughly reliable 

 and well nigh 

 perfect red 

 raspberry. We 

 grow it largely 

 having in bear- 

 ing nearly ten 

 acres of it there- 

 fore speak ad- 

 visedly. The 

 canes are of 

 stout habit at- 

 taining a height 

 of six feet under 

 ordinary cul- 

 ture and are entirely hardy without protection — in fact it has never been winter-killed in the least with us. It 

 ripens early and is exceedingly prolific, yielding so heavily as to give us much trouble to get pickers enough to 

 gather the fruit. Berries large, round and of the brilliant crims m color of the old Brandy wine, which thay re- 

 tain under all conditions and circumstances. It is sweet and pleasant but not highly flavored. In firmness it is 

 indeed remarkable. During the picking season just past it rained with us almostevery day from the opening [un- 

 til tbe close, yet Miller went to market bright and fresh in color, in good condition, and every shipment sold at 

 the top of the market. Uniting as it does, large size, beautiful color, great firmness, attractive appearance, 

 with vigorous, strong, upright habit, hardy cane, earliness and great productiveness, it is indeed a most valu- 

 able red raspberry. Having an enormous stock of splendid plants, we offer them at the following very low rates.
