J. T. LOVETT, LITTLE SILVER, N. J. 



Snyder. — Its great hardiness of 

 cane renders it valuble for cold 

 climates, and hence popular for 

 planting at the North. Berries 

 are but medium in size, but are 

 borne in great abundance, liter- 

 ally covering the bush with fruit; 

 sweet and iuicy. Early. Doz., 

 35c.; 100, $1.00; 1000, 16.00. 



Taylor's Prolific. — As hardy as 

 Snyder, but ripens late; hence an 

 excellent companion for it in cold 

 climates. Berries of good size 

 and extra fine flavor, rich, sweet 

 and luscious. It. is one of the 

 most reliable of all blackberries 

 and never fails to mature a crop. 

 It is the best late blackberry we have, and it suc- 

 ceeds everywhere ; profitable for market and 



very desirable in the home 

 garden. Doz., 35c. ; 100, $1.00; 

 1000, $7.00. 



Wilson's Early.— Once the 

 leading early market sort, but 

 now superseded by others. 

 Berries large and exceedingly 

 firm, canes of slender habit 

 and rather tender. Subject to 

 double or rose blossom, and 

 hence not reliable of late years. 

 Doz., 35c.; 100, $1.00; 1000, 

 $6.00. 



Wilson Junior. — An improve- 

 ment upon the above, of which 

 it is a seedling, uniting extra 

 large size, earliness and productiveness with bright 

 appearance, and superior shipping and long-keep- 

 ing qualides. Doz., 35c.; 100, $1.25; 1000, $8.00. 



PREMO DEWBERRY. 



blossoms, which lack pollen. Doz., 35c.; ICO, $1.50; 



Austin's Im- 

 proved. — An 



early dew- 

 berry of excel- 

 lent quali ty 

 and large 

 yield, but the 

 berries lack 

 firmness for 

 long shipment; 

 hence valuable 

 chiefly for 

 home use and 

 local markets. 

 Berries large, 

 short and 

 thick ; canes 

 vigorous, 

 hardy and pro- 

 ductive. R i - 

 pens fully a 



week earlier 



than Lucretia. 



Doz., 35c.; 100, $1.00 ; 1000, $7.00. 



Note — I would be pleased to hear from any one 

 who wishes large quantities of Dewberry plants, 

 stating quantides desired of each. In lots of 2,000 

 or more special quotations will be given. 



The especial value of Premo con- 

 sists in its extreme earliness, 

 whilst the fruit in size and quality 

 is fully equal to the standard, Lu- 

 cretia. It ripens its entire crop 

 very rapidly, and as early as from 

 seven to ten days before that 

 variety ; the entire crop being 

 picked and marketed before the 

 second picking of Lucretia has 

 begun. It always brings the best 

 market price. The canes are good 

 growers, very hardy and prolific ; 

 foliage heavy and tough. Berries 

 are large, long, glossy jet black, 

 firm, sweet and fine in quality. 

 With Premo first and Lucretia to 

 follow one may crowd the market 

 with fine fruit until blackberries 

 come. Premo is a sure money- 

 getter. To ensure a heavy yield 

 plant every third or fourth row with 

 Lucretia to thoroughly fertilize the 



1000, $10.00. 



Lucretia. — The standard Dewberry, earlier than 

 the earliest blackberry and as large as the largest 



of them. The 

 canes are of 

 great hardi- 

 ness and ex- 

 ceedingly pro- 

 lific, thriving 

 everywhere; 

 of slender, 

 trailing habit, 

 and entirely 

 free from dis- 

 ease and in- 

 sect attacks. 

 The fruit is 

 superb, large 

 and hand- 

 some, jet 

 black, rich and 

 melting, and 

 ships and 

 keeps well. I 

 grow the Lu- 

 cretia largely 

 for market, 

 having fruited some ten acres each year for several 

 years past. Doz., 30c.; 100, $1.00 ; 1000, $6.00.
