J. T. LOVETT, INC., LITTLE SILVER, N. J.— RASPBERRIES 17 



ST. REGIS EVERBEARING OR RANERE 



A unique red raspberry and all things considered, the 

 most valuable one that has appeared in the last quarter of a 

 century. It was introduced by me in 1910 and by sheer merit has fored ahead by leaps 

 and bounds until it now stands at the top of the list of red varieties, The berries, though 

 not of large size, are bright red, and of excellent quality. It ripens very early — in advance of all other red 

 varieties — and the canes in addition to being very hardy and drought resistant, are exceedingly prolific. 

 It has rich green leaves that do not scald nor rust, hence it succeeds on hot, sandv soil, where other varieties 

 fail. 



In addition to giving an immense crop in summer, it also gives an autumn crop; continuing to produce 

 perfect berries of full flavor and in generous quantity until the ground freezes. Unlike all other raspberries, 

 it yields a moderate crop of berries the first season if planted in autumn or early spring, 



The St. Regis sends up suckers or young plants excessively and unless these are kept down (to a single 

 row of plants or three to four plants to the hill) with hoe or otherwise, treating the surplus ones as weeds, 

 the crop of fruit will be small; both in quantity and size of the berries. 



Selected suckers, dozen, 40c.; 100, $1.. 50; ^1,000, SIO.OO. 



Transplanted plants, dozen, 60c; 100, $2.50; 1,000, $15.00. 



ROYAL PURPLE (Cap). 



this is a variety of the purri 



Like the 



Cardinal, 

 ries, that 



multiplies at the ends of the canes, after the manner 

 of the blackcap varieties. Canes very hardy and 

 yield heavily; and the deep crimson berries are 

 even larger and better than those of Cardinal or 

 others of the same species. The berries are also very 

 firm. Canes said to have endured a temperature 

 of thirty-five degrees below zero unharmed. Ripens 

 late; nearlv two weeks after the Cardinal. Tips, 

 dozen, 50c.; 100, $2.00; 1,000, 815.00. Trans- 

 plapted, dozen, 75c.; 100, $3.00. 



PERFECTION —A rival of Jumbo in size of 

 berries and growth of cane. The berries are firm, 

 uniform, of great size, high quality, and very bright 

 scarlet-crimson color. Yields enormously for a long 

 season and the canes have withstood a temperature of 

 twenty degrees below zero. A leading commission 

 merchant .says: "It is the best Raspberry ever shipped 

 to New York," 



Dozen, GOc; 100, $2,50; 1,000, $15.00 



North Carolina. 

 I like the .St. Regis transplanted plants and the Caco Grape 

 vines so much I want to repeat the order.
