THE LOGANBERRY 
(Raspberry-Blackberry) 
The fruit is as large as the largest-sized blackberry; 
is of the same shape, with globules similar to that fruit. 
Color, when fully ripe, a dark rich red. It partakes of 
both flavors of the raspberry and blackberry, being a 
combination of the two mixed; a very pleasant, mild, 
vinous flavor, delightful to the taste, not found in any 
other fruit, but peculiar to this alone. It is excellent 
for the table, eaten fresh or cooked, and for jellies or jams 
without an equal. The vines are enormous bearers. One 
year old plants (stock limited), 15c each; $1.25 per 10. 
Tip rooted, ready February. 10c each; 75c per 10; 
$4.00 per 100. 
THE PHENOMENAL BERRY 
Is the result of a cross between the Improved California 
Dewberry and the Cuthbert Raspberry. Mr. Burbank 
(the introducer) describes it as larger than the largest- 
berry ever before known; bright crimson raspberry color; 
productive as could be desired. Tip rooted, ready Feb- 
ruary. 15c each; $1.00 per 10. 
NEW DEWBERRY— GARDENA 
The Gardena has proven itself a most valuable fruit 
for Southern California. It is remarkably early, ripening, 
its fruit in April and May, and in productiveness is a. 
surprise to fruit-growers, having the past season far 
exceeded that of any other variety of its class. The 
fruit is large, firm, of superior flavor, and very attrac- 
tive in its appearance. Grow them upon a low trellis, 
not over 2 feet high; plant the rows 5 feet apart; plants 
3 feet apart; put up two wires, one a foot from the ground, 
the other not over 2 feet — better 20 inches. 15c each; 
$1.00 per 10; $6.00 per 100. 
HORSERADISH 
Strong plants, 15c each; $1.00 per 10. 
RHUBARB 
LORENZO AND LINNAEUS. Strong roots, 15c each; 
$1.50 per dozen. 
AUSTRALIAN CRIMSON WINTER 
The great value of Rhubarb as a vegetable has always 
been its earliness, and a vast amount of time and labor 
has been spent in .efforts to originate a variety which 
would produce stalks even a day or two in advance of 
other early varieties. Australian "Crimson Winter" 
Rhubarb will produce marketable stalks abundantly, 
fully six weeks earlier than any other Rhubarb. Price, 
25c each; $2.00 per 10.
