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



WELCH or HONEY.— So sweet and rich in 

 flavor, this is known as "Honey" Raspberry. A 



midseason variety with berries of extra large size, 

 good bright crimson color and honey sweetness, 

 melting and luscious; the finest in quality of any 

 offered. It is not firm enough to ship well a long 

 distance. The canes are vigorous, hardy and 

 productive. A profitable variety for local market 

 and superb for the home garden. Dozen, 40c.; 

 100, $1.50; 1,000, $10.00. Transplanted, dozen, 

 60c.; 100, $2.50; 1,000, $15.00. 



WINEBERRY (Japanese Wineberry).— De- 

 cidedly unique and valuable as an ornamental plant 

 as well as for its beautiful fruit. It is a strong, 

 rampant grower, the canes being thickly covered 

 with purplish-red hairs. Berries are of medium 

 size, the color of sherry wine, sparkling, with a 

 brisk, pleasant, sub-acid flavor. Canes as hardy as 

 an oak, and yield enormously, for a long season. 

 Excellent as a desert fruit, but especially valuable 

 for canning and for making a delicious wine. Tips, 

 dozen, 50c.; 100, $2.50. 



BLACK RASPBERRIES 



Popularly termed Black Cap Raspberries. They 

 are propagated by layering the ends of the canes in 

 the earth which causes them to emit roots and form 

 plants. See cut on preceding page. The trans- 

 planted plants are sure to grow. They give great 

 satisfaction and I especially commend them to 

 amateurs. 



y/ CUMBERLAND.— All things considered, the 

 finest of the black raspberries. It certainly gives 

 the largest berries of any blackcap I have ever 



grown and the yield is very good. The canes are 

 strong and vigorous, quite in accord with the demand 

 of such a large fruited and abundant bearer and are 

 hardy. The berries are jet black with very little 

 bloom, are firm and of excellent quality; sweet and 

 mild, ripen in mid-season and continue from two 

 weeks. Tips, dozen, 50c.; 100, $2.00; 1,000, $12.00. 

 .Transplanted, dozen, 60c.; 100, $3.00. 



BLACK DIAMOND.— In this we have a very 

 superior early blackcap; one producing fruit of large 

 size, firm texture and of high quality with a prolific 

 cane of strong growth and ironclad hardihood. 

 Berries are almost as large as those of the Kansas 

 and of sugary flavor. Unsurpassed for evaporating. 

 Extremely popular in western New York, where it is 

 largely grown. Tips, dozen, 50c.; 100, $2.00. 

 1,000, $12.00. 



Transplanted, dozen, 60c.; 100, $3.00. 



KANSAS. — More largely planted than any other 

 variety, by reason of its being so reliable and giving 

 such flne berries. The canes are of strong growth, 



hardy and exceedingly prolific. It ripens earlier 

 than the Cumberland and the berries do not have 

 the objectionable bloom or mouldy appearance of 

 some varieties. Berries of large size, jet black, 

 firm, sweet and excellent. One of the very best of 

 the black caps as a shipper. Ripens early to mid- 

 season and matures its entire crop quickly. Tips, 

 dozen, 50c.; 100, $2.00; 1,000, $12.00. Trans- 

 planted, dozen, 60c.; 100, $3.00. 



PLUM FARMER.— A distinct and valuable 

 variety. The berries are of highest quality, of large 

 size, and firm, meaty texture. They are coal black 

 with considerable bloom, which causes them to 

 appear a bluish-gray. The canes are of strong 

 habit, hardy, and prolific. Ripens quite early and 

 matures its entire crop of berries rapidly. Tips, 

 dozen, 50c.; 100, $2.00; 1,000, $12.00. Trans- 

 planted, dozen, 60c.; 100, $3.00. 



SCARFF (Improved Gregg). — A seedling of the 

 Gregg from Ohio. The introducer says: "In size, 

 it compares with Cumberland — possibly larger. 

 In production, it is far ahead of any other Black 

 Cap we grow. It is absolutely hardy," Tips, 

 dozen, 50c.; 100, $2.00; 1,000, $18,00. Trans- 

 planted, doz., 75c; 100, $3.50.
