J. T. LOVETT, INC., LITTLJ: SILVER, NJ.— RASPBERRIES 



ST. REGIS EVERBEARING OR RANERE 



A unique red Raspberry and, all things consid- 

 ered, the most valuable one that has appeared in the 

 last quarter of a century. It was introduced by us in 

 1910 and by sheer merit has forged ahead by leaps 

 and bounds until it now stands at the top of the list 

 of red varieties. The berries, though not of largest size, are bright red and of excellent qual- 

 ity. It ripens v^ry early — in advance of all other red varieties — and the canes, in addition to 

 being very hardy and drought-resistant, are exceedingly prolific. Its leaves do not scald nor 

 rust, hence it succeeds on hot, sandy soil, where other varieties fail. 



Besides giving an immense crop in summer, it also gives an autumn crop; continuing 

 to produce perfect berries of full flavor and in generous quantity until the ground freezes. 

 Unlike all other Raspberries, it yields a moderate crop of berries the first season, if planted 

 in autumn or early spring. 



The St. Regis sends up suckers or young plants excessively and unless these are kept down 

 (to a single row of plants or three to four plants to the hill) with hoe or otherwise, treating 

 the surplus ones as weeds, the crop of fruit will be small, both in quantity and size of the berries. 



Selected suckers, dozen, 50c.; 100, $2.00; 1,000, $16.00. Transplanted plants, dozen, 75c.; 

 100, $3.00; 1,000, $20.00. 



KING 



Until the introduction of the St. Regis, this 

 was the most popular variety that unites earliness, 

 bright color, firmness and excellent quality of 

 its berries with vigorous growth, productiveness 

 and hardiness of cane. Its crimson berries are 

 exceedingly bright and lively in color and so 

 firm as to endure long shipment without change, 

 and its canes are very hardy in winter and heat- 

 resisting in summer. Sucker plants, dozen, 50c. ; 

 100, $2.00; 1,000, $15.00. 



GOLDEN QUEEN 



Though not red, we class this with the red 

 varieties, as it is of the same habit and requires 

 the same culture. A sport of the Cuthbert and 

 similar to it in all respects except color, which 

 is a clear, translucent amber. Of luscious qual- 

 ity and a valuable variety for the home garden. 

 Introduced by the Monmouth Nursery in 1885, 

 and much the best variety producing yellow fruit. 

 Strong plants, dozen, 50c.; 100, $2.50.
