The Philadelphia Easpberry. 



For productiyeness and as a profitable variety for field culture 

 or the garden, this variety novr takes the lead of all others; the plant 

 is perfectly hardy, of strong_growth, and bears regularly every season 

 enormous crops. The fruit is of good size, of a purplish-red color, 

 rich and juicy. We oS^ strong well rooted plants at the following 

 prices. Per dozen $2.50. Per 100 $15.00. Per 1000 $140.00. 



DUHHING BASPBEBIIY; 



Is also one of the recent introductions; it is a seedling of the 

 Hornet ; fruit large, color dark red, very firm ; flavor excellent. 

 A great bearer, and hardy. 



The Gardener's Monthly, October, 1866, speaks thus of this variety: 



"We are satisfied that it is superior to the Hornet, and as that is 

 every where popular, we think the Duhring will be a good addition to 

 our Raspberry list." 



Messrs. Isaac Hicks & Sons, North Hempstead, L. I., in a letter 

 dated 7th Month, 30, 1867, referring to this variety, says: "The Duh- 

 ring Raspberry, is a great bearer, fine, large and good fruit." Price 

 of plants, 50 cents each, $5.00 per dozen, $35.00 per 100. 



CLARKE RASPBERRY. 



Is a seedling raised by the late I^Ir. E. E. Clarke, of New Haven, Conn. 

 It is believed that this variety will become a valuable one to the fruit 

 grower ; it is a perfectly hardy plant, retaining its foliage until killed 

 by frost, hence ripening its wood and needing no winter protection ; 

 very productive, fruit large bright crimson, 720^^ dropping as soon as 

 ripe, of the finest flavor, and sufficiently firm to bear transportation. 

 We have a stock of very fine strong plants, which we offer at the fol- 

 lowing rates: each 75 cents; per dozen, $7.50; per 100, $50. 



The following are superior varieties, but require a slight protec- 

 tion, during winter.
