RASPBERRIES 



(Continued) 



COLUMBIAN (Cap) — Because of its dull red 

 color it is not a good market variety; but for the 

 home garden, where quality counts most, it is one 

 of the very best. It may well be described as a 

 "purple cap" sort, quite distinct from either the 

 red-fruited or black-cap varieties. The fruit, which 

 is of a dull purple-crimson, is of high quality and is 

 excellent for making jelly and jam. Canes both 

 hardy and prolific. Succeeds everywhere, even in 

 the South, where most varieties of red Raspberries 

 fail. Ripens in midseason, continuing quite late. 

 Extra heavy tip plants, dozen, $1.50; 100, $7.50. 



CUTHBERT — Introduced by us in 1878. For 

 twenty-five years it was the most largely planted of 

 all red Raspberries and is still very popular. Berries 

 of large size, deep crimson, moderately firm and of 

 high quality, being rich and spicy. Canes of strong 

 growth, with large, healthy foliage, but not entirely 

 hardy during severe winters. Ripens in midseason 

 until late and succeeds everywhere, even in the 

 South. Sucker plants, dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00; 

 1,Q00, $35.00. 



GOLDEN QUEEN — Introduced by us in 1885, 

 and by far the best yellow-fruited variety. 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 similarto it in all respects 

 except color, which is a clear, translucent amber. Of 

 luscious quality and a valuable variety for the home 



garden. Sucker plants, dozen, $2.50; 100, 

 $15.00. 



KING — This combines earliness, bright color, 

 firmness, and excellent quality of its berries with 

 vigorous growth, productiveness and hardiness of 

 cane in an extraordinary degree. Its crimson berries 

 are exceedingly bright and lively in color and so firm 

 as to endure long shipment without change. Sucker 

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



LATHAM (Everbearing) — May prove to be 

 the very best of all the everbearing sorts for certain 

 sections. It is a splendid, strong growing variety 

 and produces immense quantities of bright red extra 

 large berries from June until freezing weather. 

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



OHTA — An extremely hardy, vigorous growing 

 sort, bearing beautiful scarlet firm berries. Has fall- 

 bearing tendencies. 



Sucker plants, dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00. 

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



WHITE QUEEN (Everbearing) — This beauti- 

 ful, white-fruited everbearing variety in some re- 

 spects is actually an improvement upon St. Regis, 

 its fruit being larger and its quality simply superb. 

 So great has been the demand for this remarkable 

 sort that our supply of mother plants has become 

 alarmingly low. We suggest early orders to those 

 who will have no other ! 



Selected sucker plants, dozen, $7.50. 



Yes, we grow a few Dahlias and " Glads " — The Best I 



We cannot grow them all, so we selected what we feel represents the aristocracy in these two 

 popular flowers from bulbs. There are the famous "Jersey" series among Dahlias originated 

 right here in our neighborhood; many "ruffled" beauties among the Gladioli; but please ask for 

 our booklet designed to serve the fanciers in these two popular floral favorites.
