ST. KEGIS. 



We have pleasure in offering this fine, new, 

 almost sensational fruit, destined we believe 

 to be the most popular ever introduced. 



It i s the earliest of all red raspberries; be- 

 ginning 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 succeeds upon all soils, 

 and the canes are absolutely hardy. 



It fruits on the old canes in generous quan- 

 tities until late in August. By that date 

 berries begin to ripen upon the young canes, 

 which continue to produce berries in increas- 

 ing numbers unti 1 severe frost. 



The berries are a bright crimson, of large 

 size and surpassing quality — rich, sugary, 

 with full raspberry flavor. They are of ex- 

 ceedingly 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. (See cut.) 



Price, strong transplanted plants, 20c. each. S2.00 

 per doz.,S12.00per 100.
