New Continuous- Fruiting Red Raspberry 



ST. REGIS. Ready ° cu 25<h - 



Fruits from June to Frost. 



We have pleasure in offering this fine, new. al- 

 most sensational fruit, destined we believe to be 

 the most popular ever introduced. 



It is the earliest of all red raspberries; beginning 

 to ripen in New Jersey from June 15th to 20th — 

 just as the strawberry crop is waning. 



It is wonderfully prolific; the first or main crop 

 being far greater than that of any other red 

 variety known. 



It fruits on the old canes in generous quantities 

 until late in August. By that date, berries begin 

 to ripen upon the young canes, which continues 

 to produce berries in increasing numbers until severe frost. 



The berries are a bright crimson, of large size and surpassing 

 quality — rich, sugary with full raspberry flavor. They are cf 

 exceedingly meaty, firm texture and keep in good condition 

 longer after being gathered, than any other red raspberry. 



The canes are of stocky, strong growth with a great abundance 

 of dark green leathery leaves, that never scald nor sunburn. 

 Price, strong transplanted plants, 25c. each, $2.50 per doz., 

 5.00 per 100.
