22 LOVETT'S NURSERY, LITTLE SILVER, N. J.— CURRANTS— DEWBERRIES 



CURRANTS 



An Ideal Fruit for 

 Small Gardens 



A PRETTIER sight than well 

 grown, symmetrical Currant 

 bushes, laden with hundreds, 

 yes, thousands of miniature red or 

 white globules, holding delightfully 

 spicy juice, is difficult to imagine. 

 Currants combine usefulness and 

 beauty in a high degree and their com- 

 pact growth makes them eminently fit 

 for gardens too small to hold any 

 of the stronger growing cane fruits 

 Plant in rows, 4 feet apart 

 spacing the plants 3 feet apart in , 

 the row. Mulch during the winter. 



When desired, plants will be 

 forwarded by parcel post, pro- 

 vided cash is sent for postage as 

 per table. 



Uniform prices for all varie- 

 ties (except as quoted other- 

 wise) ; 1 year, each, 30c. ; dozen. 

 $3.00. 2 years, each, 40c. 

 dozen, $4.00. 



CHERRY AND VERSAILLES 

 — Large berries, short clusters, 

 bright sparkling crimson, of sharp 

 and acid flavor. 



PERFECTION 



Equally satisfactory in various 

 soils and sections, we consider it 

 the most satisfactory all-around 

 currant in cultivation. A strong grower, it is natur- 

 ally very prolific. It ripens in midseason and the 

 berries remain in good condition for a long time. 

 The berries are of large size, being clear, of bright 

 sparkling red arid with juice of highest quality. 

 1 year old, each, 40c; dozen, $4.00. 2 years, 

 each, 50c; dozen, $5.00. 



FAY'S PROLIFIC— Bunch and berry large, 

 bright and sparkling. A regular and prolific bearer. 



NORTH STAR— Berries bright red, rather small, 



PLEASE NOTE. — It is not permissible 

 for New Jersey nurserymen to ship Currants 

 or Gooseberries into the following states: 

 Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, 

 Nevada, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Colo- 

 rado, Arizona, New Mexico, North Dakota, 

 South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Okla- 

 homa, Texas, Minnesota, Tennessee, North 

 Carolina, Maryland, New Hampshire, Dela- 

 ware, Maine ' and Massachusetts. Since 

 Black Currants are instrumental in spreading 

 certain fungus diseases, we neither grow 

 nor sell them. 



WHITE GRAPE — NONE BETTER 

 FOR ANY USE 



but the long clusters are produced in wonderful 

 profusion. 



PRES. WILDER— Produces, late in the season, 

 very large bright red juicy berries of high quality. 



RED CROSS — Exceptionally vigorous grower. 

 Bears great crops of good sized sparkling red berries. 



VICTORIA— The best late variety. Bunches 

 long, pale red berries of medium size. 



WHITE GRAPE— By far the best of the white 

 fruited sorts. It is a beautiful translucent white 

 and of mild, good quality. 1 year, each, 40c; 

 dozen, $4.00. 2 years, each, 50c; dozen $5.00.

AUSTIN S IMPROVED DEWBERRIES 



DEWBERRIES 



T^HESE are re ally a dwarf, spreading type of Blackberry 

 from which they differ, however, in several important 

 characteristics. They thrive in even poorest soil, but 

 need some protection, especially in the North. Where con- 

 ditions are favorable, Dewberries ripen earlier than Black- 

 berries, are handsomer, sweeter and grow larger. Some of 

 the newer hybrids also excel the older type in productive- 

 ness. Altogether, we foresee quite a future for this re- 

 markable berry, as its characteristics and requirements 

 bedome better known. 



LUCRETIA — Is sweeter and equals in size the best 

 varieties of Blackberries. Of slender, trailing habit, the 

 vines are entirely hardy except at the far North, succeed on 

 all soils (even very sandy) and are exceedingly prolific. 

 The berries are of large size, sparkling jet black, and of high 

 quality. Dozen, 75c; 100, $4.00; 1.000, $35.00. Extra 

 strong transplanted plants, dozen, $1.50; 100, $7.50. 



AUSTIN'S IMPROVED— The earliest dewberry and 

 the first to ripen of the blackberry family. The berries are 

 large, nearly round and of excellent quality. Ripens earlier 

 than Lucretia. Dozen, $1.00; 100, $5.00. Extra strontf 

 transplanted plants, dozen, $1.75; 100, $9.00.
