DREER'S SELECT SMALL FRUITS 



ty&"AU Plants are forwarded on receipt of order unless instructed to the contrary, and are sent by express, purchaser paying charges. 

 We can forward most plants by Parcel Post, and if wanted sent in this way, add to value of order in accordance with note on page 119 

 and Order Blank. 



While the list of Small fruits offered is short, yet it is very select, only the very finest sorts being offered. This is preferable to a 

 long list which would necessarily contain varieties of less merit. 



We do not handle fruit trees such as Apples, Pears, Cherries, etc. We have also discontinued handling Currants and Gooseberries 

 owing to the possibility of their spreading the White Pine Blister Rust. 



Two New Hardy Grapes 



The Caco. A cross between Catawba and Concord, which has inherited 



the best characteristics of both parents developing a luscious fruit which 



ranks close to the greenhouse grown product in high quality and melting 



texture. In appearance it is one of the most beautiful of all hardy grapes, 



berries large, wine-red with abundant bloom carried in large compact 



bunches. It ripens in advance of Concord and is a strong vigorous grower. 

 Champagne. A variety that is being extensively grown in the grape 



growing districts of New Jersey and which has special merit not only in 



the quality of its fruit but is also an exceptionally strong grower and very 



prolific bearer. Its berries are of large size, coppery-red in color and of 



delicious flavor. 



We can supply strong two-year-old plants of either of the above new sorts. 

 75 cts. each; $7.50 per doz.

 Concord. The most popular black grape; succeeds everywhere. 

 Lucile. Very large red of exquisite flavor. 

 Moore's Diamond. Greenish white, with rich yellow tinge. 

 Moore's Early. Large, black; good quality. 

 Niagara. Berries large, light greenish- white ; slightly ambered.

Hardy Grapes 



Blackberries 



Blackberries 



Blackberries respond generously to good treatment. They 

 prefer a deep soil, inclining to sand, but will grow and fruit almost 

 anywhere. 



El Dorado. One of the best, large, sweet and tender; very hardy. 

 Snyder. One of the oldest and still one of the most popular. 

 Price. 85 cts. per doz.; $6.00 per 100; $50.00 per 1000. 



Raspberries 



Raspberries will succeed in any soil that will grow good corn, 

 but respond quickly to liberal treatment; for best results the old 

 wood should be cut just as soon as the crop has been gathered. 

 This will give more vigor to the young canes for next year's 

 bearing. 



Cumberland. A large black cap of exceedingly fine quality. 

 Cuthbert. Large, deep, rich crimson. 

 Price. $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100; $60.00 per 1000. 



Everbearing Raspberry, 

 Red Raniere 



This is not only the earliest raspberry, but it is a perpetual 

 fruiting variety. Its main crop is greater than that of any other 

 red variety, and continues to bear fruit on the old canes until 

 late in August, at about which time the berries begin to ripen on 

 the young canes of the current year's growth, which continue to 

 bear fruits in increasing number until late in fall. The berries 

 are bright crimson, of good size, excellent quality of a rich sugary, 

 full raspberry flavor. 85 cts. per doz.; $6.00 per 100; $50.00 per 

 1000.
