LOVETT'S NURSERY, LITTLE SILVER, N.J.— RASPBERRIES 



BLACK RASPBERRIES 



KANSAS (See illustration above). — More 

 largely grown than any other variety, by rea- 

 son of its being so reliable and giving such fine 

 berries. The canes are of strong growth, hardy 

 and exceedingly prolific. It ripens earlier than 

 the Cumberland and the berries do not have 

 the objectionable bloom or mouldy appearance 

 of some varieties. Berries of large size, jet 

 black, firm, sweet and excellent. One of the 

 very best of the Blackcaps as a shipper. Ripens 

 early to midseason and matures its entire crop 

 quickly. Tips, dozen, 75c.; 100, $3.50. Trans- 

 planted, dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00. 



WINEBERRY 



A Japanese species first brought to America 

 by a member of our family. It surely deserves 

 a place in every home garden. 



Decidedly unique and valuable as an orna- 

 mental plant as well as for its beautiful fruit. 

 It is a strong, rampant grower, the canes 

 being thickly covered with purplish-red 

 hairs. The berries are of bright, translu- 

 cent appearance, enveloped in a purplish 

 hairy calyx and presenting an appearance 

 resembling moss rose buds. Berries of 

 medium size, the color of sherry wine, 

 sparkling, with a brisk, pleasant sub-acid 

 flavor. Canes of strong growth, as hardy 

 as an oak, and yield enormously for a long 

 season. Excellent as a dessert fruit, but 

 especially valuable for canning and for 

 making a delicious wine. Tips, dozen, 

 $1.50; 100, $10.00. Heavy transplanted 

 plants, dozen, $2.50; 100, $15.00. 



Lovett's for Small Fruits— a slogan to remember J 



Popularly termed Blackcap Raspberries. The 

 tips are propagated by layering the ends of the 

 canes in earth, which causes them, to emit roots 

 and foim plants. The transplanted plants are 

 sure to grow and are especially recommended. 



CUMBERLAND.— Produces the large&t ber- 

 ries of any Blackcap that we have ever grown 

 and produces them freely. The berries are jet 

 black, with very little bloom; are firm and of 

 excellent quality; sweet and mild; ripening in 

 midseason and continuing for two weeks. 

 Tips, dozen, 75c.; 100, $3.50. Transplanted, 

 dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00. 



HONEY SWEET 



Even those who ordinarily do not care for 

 Blackcaps will surely enjoy the fruit of Honey 

 Sweet, which is remarkably rich, sweet and 

 luscious. Not only are the berries of superb 

 flavor, but they are firm enough for distant 

 shipment. They are also of attractive appear- 

 ance, being jet black, without bloom, and of 

 good size. Canes are of strong growth and of 

 ironclad hardihood and yield heavily. Ripens 

 early to midseason, maturing its entire crop 

 quickly. We consider it by far the best of all. 

 Selected tip plants, dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00. . 



PLUM FARMER.— A distinct and valuable 

 variety. The berries are of highest quality, 

 of large size, and firm, meaty texture. They 

 are coal black, with considerable bloom, which 

 causes them to appear a bluish-gray. The 

 canes are of strong habit, hardy, and prolific. 

 Ripens quite early and matures its entire crop 

 of berries rapidlv. Tips, dozen, 75c.; 100, $3.50. 

 Transplanted, dozen. $1.00: 100. $5.00. 



SCARFF.— A seedling of the once popular 

 Gregg, but in every way superior to its parent. 

 Its fruit is almost, if not fully, as large as 

 Cumberland, and it is produced in much 

 greater profusion than that variety; in fact, we 

 consider it the most productive Blackcap in 

 commerce. Absolutely hardy and a vigorous 

 grower. Tips, dozen, 75c.; 100, $3.50. Trans- 

 planted, dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00. 



J. P. McDonald, of North Chattanooga, Tenn., writes on 

 May 17, 1922, as follows: 



"The Blackberry plants I bought of you are growing 

 nicely. I thank you for the nice plants you sent me so 

 promptly, you will get my future orders." 



And here is a message from the Pacific Coast dated 

 May 3, 1922: 



"Am very proud of the Black Caps and desire you to 

 know that so far 45 of the lot you sent are coming 

 through just fine, considering that I only paid you for 36, 

 think that is going some. New growth is 2 inches in some 

 cases, and I anticipate good results. I have never seen 

 them in the markets here and do not know of any others 

 in my section. Lewis A. Monroe.
