LOVETT NURSERY, LITTLE SILVER, N.J.— DEWBERRIES 



DEWBERRIES 



Plants will be shipped by mail, provided cash 

 is sent for postage as per table. 



If to be staked, plant in rows four feet apart 

 each way; if to be mulched, plant in rows six 

 feet apart and the plants three feet apart in 

 the rows. 



LUCRETIA.— The standard dewberry. It 

 ripens in advance of the earliest blackberry, 

 and equals in size the best varieties of its near 

 relative. Of slender, trailing habit, the vines 

 are entirely hardy except at the far North, 

 succeed upon all soils (even very sandy) and 

 are exceedingly prolific. The berries are quite 

 long, of large size, sparkling jet black, of high 

 quality and verv firm. Ships well, keeps well, 

 sells well. Dozen, 75c.; 100, $4.00; 1,000, $35.00. 



AUSTIN'S IMPROVED.— The earliest dew- 

 berry and the first to ripen of the blackberry 

 family. The berries are large, nearly round 

 and of excellent quality. Ripening in advance 

 of Lucretia, it has proved a very profitable 

 market variety. Dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00. 



LOGANBERRY 



The great merits of this unique fruit are now 

 well known. The berries are of great size, 

 equalling large blackberries, and are deep red- 

 dish maroon in color. In flavor, they are rich 

 and refreshing — a mingling of the raspberry 

 and blackberry, the raspberry predominating; 

 mellow and refined, yet distinct from either, 

 melting and without core. The flavor is so 

 luscious, novel and rich, the berry cannot fail 

 to please everybody as a dessert fruit. For 

 canning it is superior to all the other small 

 fruits, and for jellies and jams it has no equal. 

 What gives special value to this novel fruit is 

 its earliness — ripening as it does at the close 

 of the strawberry season, and in advance of all 

 but the very earliest raspberries. 



Selected ^tip plants, dozen, $3.00; 100, $20.00; 

 1,000, $175.00. Heavy transplanted plants, 

 dozen, $5.00; 100, $35.00. Extra heavy, fruiting 

 age plants, each, 7Sc.; dozen, $7.50. 



STRAWBERRY-RASPBERRY 



A truly ''everbearing" fruit, producing great 

 quantities of most attractive sparkling crimson 

 berries from early in July until frost. This 

 fruit, often of great size, contrasting with the 

 large pure white blossoms and deep green 

 foliage, makes a dazzling sight. The fresh 

 fruit lacks flavor, but cooked with Columbian 

 or other Raspberries, it is delicious. Dozen, 

 $1.50. Extra heavv, transplanted plants, dozen, 

 $2.50. 



DEWBERRIES — A dish for mortals fond of flavor in 



fruits 



W I N E B E R- 

 RIES— A de- 

 light to eye 

 and palate alike 



LOGANBERRIES — Just as they grow 



WINEBERRY 



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, translucent appearance, 

 of medium size, the color of 

 sherry wine, sparkling with a 

 brisk, pleasant sub-acid flavor. 

 Canes yield enormously for a long 

 season. Excellent as a dessert 

 fruit, but especially valuable for 

 canning and for making a delicious 

 wine. Heavy transplanted plants, dozen, 

 $2.50; 100, $15.00.
