16 /. T. LOVETT CO— WINEBERRY— RASPBERRIES. 

 V JAPANESE RASPBERRY or WINEBERRY. 



This inien sting plant belongs to the 

 Raspberry family, and is a large,robust 

 grower, perfectly hardy arid enoimous- 

 ly prolific; the csnes are thickly cov- 

 ert d with purplish-red hairs, which 

 exterd along the stem to its extremity. 

 The leaves are large, toi gh, dark green 

 above, and silvery gray teneath. The 

 fruit is borne in large clusters, and 

 each berry is at first tightly enveloped 

 by the large calyx, forming a sort of 

 burr, which is also covered with pur- 

 plish-red hairs so thickly as to present 

 the appearance of moss rose buds. 

 These gradually open and turn back, 

 exposing the fruit in all its beauty. 

 The berries are of a beautiful, translu- 

 cent appearance, running through all 

 the shades' of amber to crimson as they 

 ripen. There is a freshness and bril- 

 liancy about them impossible to de- 

 scribe, and we know of nothing in the 

 way of raspberries so attractive. A 

 bush in full fruiting is a sight not read- 

 ily to be forgotten and a decided orna- 

 ment to the garden. In quality it is 

 quite di«tinct, but a decidedly brisk 

 sub- acid. When cooked it is grand, re- 

 taining its rich and sprightly flavor, 

 and surpassing when canned or pre- 

 served even the Huckleberry. For 

 jelly making it is without an equal. It 

 begins ripening in July, the berries are 

 produced in great abundance, and it 

 continues in bearing for a long time. 

 Price, Doz., $1.00; 100, $6.00.
