BLACKBERRIES— Continued 



HIMALAYA.— Almost a climber, with ex- 

 tremely long canes, which grow best over 

 stakes or an arbor. The berries are small, 

 but of sweet, brisk flavor. Transplanted plants, 

 dozen, $1.50; 100. $8.00. 



Iceberg. — Unquestionably the best white 

 blackberry as yet produced. Clusters of the 

 white, translucent berries are borne very pro- 

 fusely in midseason and are both sweet and 

 tender. It is not as hardy as some of the 

 black varieties. As the blossoms are lacking 

 in pollen, it should be planted near some black 

 fruited varietv in order to yield freely. 



R. C. plants, dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00. Trans- 

 planted plants, dozen, $1.50; 100, $7.50. 



Kenoyer. — Ripens very early, with us by July 

 1st. It is hardy and produces berries of ex- 

 cellent quality, though not very large. It is 

 probablv the best extra earlv variety. 



R. C. "plants, dozen, $1.00: 100, $4.50. Trans- 

 planted plants, dozen, $1.25; 100, $6.00. 



La Grange. — Unlike other varieties, the fruit 

 of La Grange ripens in the shade and is. there- 

 fore, of superior quality. It begins to ripen 

 early in July and continues for four or five 

 weeks, yielding heavily. In addition to the 

 extreme hardihood of its canes, it is a very 

 valuable variety by reason of its large yield, 

 early ripening, long season of fruiting, and par- 

 ticularly the fine size and superb quality of its 

 fruit. 



R. C. plants, dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00. Trans- 

 planted plants, dozen, $1.50; 100, $7.50. 



TEXAS — A Berry Beyond Compare 



Macatawa. — This, by many growers, is 

 classed as an everbearing sort because of its 

 very long season of fruiting. For many weeks 

 it produces fruit which is sweet, almost seed- 

 less and entirely coreless. The plants are 

 strong, upright growers, tremendously prolific 

 and extremelv hardv. 



R. C. plants, dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00; 1,000, 

 $45.00. Transplanted plants, dozen, $1.50; 100, 

 S7.50. 



Mersereau. — This is another extremely hardy 

 variety, it having originated in northwestern 

 Xew York. Great size, luscious flavor, great 

 hardiness, great productiveness and unusual 

 freedom from '"Orange Rust'' and other dis- 

 eases are combined in this one variety. 



R. C. plants, dozen, $1.00: 100. $5.00. Trans- 

 planted plants, dozen, $1.25; 100, $6.00. 



STAR OR WONDER.— This is indeed a 

 wonder. Imagine picking great clusters of 

 Blackberries from canes that resemble grape 

 vines. This is what you can do if you plant 

 the Star Blackberry. The yield is so great 

 that over eighty quarts of berries have been 

 picked from a single plant of it in one season. 



Should be trained to stakes or trellis or over 

 an arbor, as grapes are grown, and given plenty 

 of room. 



Berries are of medium size, attractive ap- 

 pearance and rich, sprightly, luscious quality: 

 keep in good condition for a long time and 

 can be safely shipped almost any distance. 

 Ripens very late. 



R. C. plants, dozen, $1.00: 100, $5.00. Trans- 

 planted plants, dozen, $1.25; 100, $6.00. 



Taylor. — We consider this by far the best 

 variety fruiting late in the season. Its berries 

 of good size and its sureness to produce a good 

 crop annually recommend it for both home and 

 market growing. 



R. C. plants, dozen. $1.00: 100. $4.50: 1.000, 

 $38.00. Transplanted plants, dozen. $1.25: 100. 

 $6.00. 



TEXAS EVERBEARING 



See illustration alongside. This variety, 

 brought from Africa by a Mr. Texas, is in many 

 respects exceptional and beyond compare. 

 Bearing continuously from early August until 

 late autumn, it is truly an everbearing sort. Dur- 

 ing its entire season its strong canes are pro- 

 lific in their production of jet black, sweet, 

 juicy berries, which are without core and often 

 measure an inch and a half in diameter 



R. C. plants, dozen. $1.00: 100. $5.00; 1.000. 

 $40.00. Transplanted, dozen. $1.50; 100. $7.50: 

 1,000, $60.00. 



WARD. — A grand blackberry. A descend 

 ant of the once famous Kittatinny air! 

 the most popular variety in Xew Tersr 

 at the present time. The canes are of 

 strong growth, hardy, and yield a heavy crop 

 of large, handsome berries of first quality an- 

 nually that always command the top price in 

 market. It is a reliable variety and an excel- 

 lent one for the home garden. 



R. C. plants, dozen. $1.00; 100, $5.00: 1,000, 

 $40.00. Transplanted plants, dozen, $1.25: 100, 

 $6 00.
