LICKETIA DEWBEKRY Oil lilNMN(i BLACKBERRY. 
The plants are perfectly hardy and healthy, and remarkably productive. The flowers are very large 
ana showy. The fruit, which ripens with the Mammoth Cluster Raspbeiry, is often one and a half inches 
long by one inch in diameter, soft, sweet and luscious throughout, without any hard center or core. As 
the Dewberry roots only from the tips, and does not sprout like blackberries, this will be much more 
desirable for garden culture, and the trailing habit of the plant will render winter protection easily 
accomplished in cold climates where that precaution may be necessary.

sauce, and is splendid canned for winter use. The plant is about the height and form of the currant bush.

injured by wet, cold or dry weather, and needs no special treatment.
