20 LOVETT'S NURSERY, LITTLE SILVER, N. J. — STRAWBERRIES — DEWBERRIES 



Standard or June-Bearing Strawberries (concluded) 



UNIFORM PRICES for all sorts (except as 

 quoted otherwise) : Layer Plants, dozen, 50c. ; 

 100, $1.50; 1,000, $10.00. POT-GROWN plants of 

 all kinds are offered on page 18. 



PREMIER — Excelled by no early variety ex- 

 cept our own Early Jersey Giant. It succeeds on al- 

 most all sorts of soils (if well drained) and through- 

 out a large section of the country. Produces in vast 

 quantities berries of good size, attractive appearance 

 and excellent quality. 



SENATOR DUNLAP — If you want to be sure 

 of a very heavy crop of fruit, but are not very par- 

 ticular about the size of the individual berries, this 

 is the variety to plant. Of good quality, for a firm 

 berry, and the berries are uniform in color and shape. 

 Largely planted for market and found very profit- 

 able. It is a second early to midseason variety. 



SHARPLESS — A variety that fruits rather late 

 in the season, and a good old sort that still "holds 

 its own" with the best of them. It is a good healthy 

 grower and produces handsome large berries of fine 

 quality. 



STEVEN'S LATE CHAMPION — Like its 

 parent, Gandy, it ripens late and is similar in many 

 respects. However, the berries are not so uniform 

 in size and shape. Excellent for canning, since it will 

 hold its shape and retain its flavor. It is one of the 

 most prolific and valuable of the late varieties. 



SUCCESS — All things considered, this is one of 

 the best early varieties, both for the home garden 

 and nearby market. Berries slightly oblong, with 

 blunt end, bright scarlet or flame color, quite large 

 and uniform in size, color and shape. Plants are 

 vigorous, healthy and very prolific. 



WILLIAM BELT — The plant is vigorous, 

 though not a rampant grower; succeeds on almost 

 all soils; invariably yields heavily; and the berries 

 are always of large size and highest quality. Its 

 flesh is solid and deep crimson in color, and the blos- 

 soms are large, with abundance of pollen. It begins 

 to ripen quite early and continues until almost the 

 close of the season, the last berries being large, hand- 

 some and full-flavored.

 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 rip- 

 ens in advance of the earliest blackberry, is sweeter 

 and equals in size the best varieties of this near 

 relative. Of slender, trailing habit, the vines are 

 entirely hardy except at the far North, succeed on 

 all soils (even very sandy) and are exceedingly pro- 

 lific. The berries are quite long, of large size, 

 sparkling jet black, of high quality and very 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 fam- 

 ily. The berries are large, nearly round and of ex- 

 cellent quality. Ripening in advance of Lucretia, it 

 has proved a very profitable market variety. 

 Dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00. 



Herbert F. Rommel, Delaware Co., Pa., writes 

 as follows: "The berry plants arrived this after- 

 noon. ... I might add they are the finest bushes 

 both as to roots and development that I have ever 

 seen come out of a nursery, and will take pleasure in 

 highly recommending your stock to anyone that can 

 appreciate 'high grade goods.' "
