THE STRAWBERRY RASPBERRY. 



The 



Strawberry 



Raspberry. 



A remarkable new hardy- 

 fruit ; grows but 2 feet high, 

 with elegant, rose-like foliage 

 and pure white flowers that 

 resemble an enormous single 

 rose. The beautiful, large, 

 bright red fruit is borne in 

 immense quantities the first

 is delicious and unique, a 

 combination between a Straw- 

 berry and Raspberry. Blooms

 grown in pots. We consider 

 this to be a highly meritorious 

 new fruit. 15 cts. each ; 4 for 

 50 cts. : $1.50 per dozen, post-

The New Logan Raspberry Blackberry. 



One of the greatest fruits ever 

 offered — a thornless Raspberry 

 Blackberry. Ripens before Rasp- 

 berries ; bears the first year ; hardy 

 as a rock. The berries are rich, 

 dark, purplish red and as large as 

 the largest Blackberry ; flavor is 

 delightful. Bears large crops the 

 first year; will grow anywhere. One 

 of the most valuable berries now 

 known. "The experience at the 

 Rhode Island Experimental Station 

 has been that, although the Winter 

 of 1895 and 1896 was so severe that 

 it spoiled the crop of Raspberries 

 and Blackberries, yet Logan Berry 

 canes covered with earth were not 

 injured in the least. Some of them 

 were 10 feet long and alive to the 

 tips when uncovered in the Spring" 

 (Massachusetts Ploughman, Jitne 

 I2,i8q7). Beware of spurious stock. 

 Ours is part of the original plants.
