It succeeds upon all soils, and the canes are absolutely hardy. 



New ContinuouS'Fruiting P\ed Raspberry, 



—ST. KEG1S — 



Fruits from June to Frost. 



We have pleasure in offering this 

 fine, new, almost sensational fruit, 

 destined we believe to be the most 

 popular ever introduced. 



It is the earliest of all red rasp- 

 berries; beginning to ripen in New 

 Jersey from June 15^h 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 gen- 

 erous quantities until late in August. 

 iy that date, berries begin to ripen upon the 

 young canes, which continue 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 of 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, 30c. each, $3.00 per doz., $20.00 per 100. 



RED RASPBERRIES. 



Cardinal. This wonderful berry is a surprise in the fulness of its 

 merits, great growth, extreme hardiness and wonderful produc- 

 tiveness. — It will grow 10 fee high and bear accordingly, pro- 

 ducing its choice, rich, red, pure-flavored fruit in marvelous 

 abundance. Leading horticulturists who have seen the berry 

 say it is one of the wonders of the century. Price, 10c. each, 

 75c. per doz., $5.00 per 100, $40.00 per 1000. 



Cuthbert. The leading market variety. Canes hardy; large, 

 healthy foliage. Berries large, dark crimson, good flavor. 



Golden Queen. ( Yellow). The most popular and best yellow 

 raspberry yet introduced. Price, 75c. per doz., $5.00 per 

 100, $40.00 per 1000. 



Miller. An early variety, large fruited and profuse bearer; 

 vigorous grower, with large and abundant foliage; color, 

 brilliant red; sweet, luscious flavor. 



Thompson's Early Prolific. A fine, early, hardy raspberry for 

 general cultivation. An excellent grower, bright crimson.

 firm, beautiful light crimson color; the qualitv is excellent. 

 60c. per doz., $4.00 per 100. 



Price for the above (except where noted), 50c. per doz., S3. 00 

 per 100, $20.00 per 1000. If by mail, add 10c. per doz. 



BLACK AND PURPLE RASPBERRIES. 



Black Diamond. A berry very popular among wes- 

 tern New York growers, a fruit center that stands 

 among the very first. Valuable for evaporating, can- 

 ning and home consumptions. One of the strongest 

 growers making an abundance of 

 good clean wood which ripens up well 

 in the fall, thus enabling it to with- 

 stand the cold winters remarkably 

 well. Fruit jet black and juicy with 

 few seeds. Price, 75c. per dozen; 

 $5.00 per 100. 



Columbian Raspberry. Most desirable 

 for the garden, a seedling of the 

 Cuthbert, which grew near a Gregg. 

 Vigorous, hardy, productive, fruit of 

 large size and great excellence. 

 Color, dark purple. Price, 10c. each, 

 60c. per doz., $4.00 per 100, $35.00 

 per 1000. 



Cumberland Raspberry. In size the fruit 

 is simply enormous, the berries measur- 

 ing seven-eighths and fifteen-six- 

 teenths of an inch in diameter, but in 

 spite of this, the fruit is possessed of 

 unusual firmness. Extremely vigor- 



ous and remarkably free from disease. Price, 10c. each, 75c. 

 per doz., $4.00 per 100, $35.00 per 1000. 



Gregg. A standard black variety. 



Haymaker. A purple raspberry, not so dark as Columbian, 

 larger and firmer than that fine sort. One of the most pro- 

 ductive berries ever grown, yielding over 200 bushels to the 

 acre. 75c. per doz., $5.00 per 100. 



The " Munger." Thoroughly tested by leading horticulturists, 

 who praise it highly. The fruit is black and resembles Gregg 

 very much. It is a better-flavored berry than Gregg, tougher 

 in texture, and therefore a better shipper. In size it excels 

 Gregg, and is extra fine for the table and preserving. (See cut.) 

 Price, 60c. per doz., $4.00 per 100, $30.00 per 1000. 



Ohio. Exceedingly productive, very hardy, excellent quality, 

 good size. 



Older. Strong growth, branching freely, plant 3^x6 ft. apart. 

 Fruit juicy, excellent 

 flavor and jet black. 



Price (except where 

 noted) 60c. per doz., 

 $3.00 per 100, $20.00 

 per 1000. If want 

 mail, add 10c. per d
