NEW VARIETIES. 
[Those marked (P) are Pistilate, and will not fruit alone; must be placed by the aide 
of some perfect flowering sort.] 
DAISEY.—A moderately strong-growing and extremely healthy, perfecfflowering 
plant, producing an enormous crop of very large globular 
berries, much resembling the Manchester, but a little 
darker in color ; moderately firm, and good quality; 
fruit stalks short and not strong enough to hold their 
enormous load of fruit clear from the ground ; except¬ 
ing this one fault, it is ** a perfect Daisey,^'' as it is 
seldom that we have a perfect flowering variety com¬ 
bining so many good qualities as are found in Daisey. 
Will doubtless prove very valuable for market. 
Price $2 per dozen, $5 per 50, $S per 100. 
EMERALD.—“Brought to this country from Ireland 
some years ago, and has been fruited on Long Island 
for the past four years, and side by side with the best 
leading sorts, has proved to be the most productive 
of all. Fruit, very large and of superior quality.” Not 
yet fruited on our grounds, but the plant is wonderfully 
vigorous and healthy. Have never seen its equal.

CORNELIA (P.)—Originated with Matthew Crawford, of Ohio. Plant stron" and 
viMrous as Manchester, with no inclination to rust; very productive, large size, 5l-ight 
eolor, and as perfect in form as ^Manchester or Cumberland ; fine flavor, and ilio very 
latest to ripen of any variety we have over tested. That it is firm enough 
mr transportation is fully attested by the fact that two years ago it was shipped from 
Ohio to Boston, remaining there on exhibition one day, and then brought to Connec¬ 
ticut, where it remained in fair eating condition for two days more. Having seen it at 
Mr. Crawford’s, and having thus tested its 
shipping qualities, we were prepared to invest 
in it largely, when it*was off’ered, last season, 
at per plant; and while most other nursery¬ 
men bought f^rom one to twenty-five plants, 
we set out one-eighth of an acre, and now 
have thousands of very strong young plants. 
In tlie Country Gentleman, of July 17,1884 
“R. J., Ontario Co., N. Y.,” says of the Cornelia : 
“ It seems about two weeks later than the Orescent; 
as symmetrical as the Manchester, brighter in 
color, very firm, and of excellent quality. It is also 
productive beyond anything we have except the 
Crescent.” 
Price, 82 per dozen, $4 per 50, ?6 per 100. 
DANIEL BOONE (P).—Originated with A. 
D. AYebb, of Kentucky. Plant, strong and 
healthy, with rich dark-green foliage. Pro¬ 
ductive ; fruit, large to very large; conical, with 
slight neck ; color, a rich, clear red, that does 
not fade soon after being picked; rich sub¬ 
acid flavor, and moderately firm ; ripens me¬ 
dium till late; very valuable on heavy, moist 
soil, with high culture. Our opinion of its 
value is best expressed by the fact that after 
,v__ ^ seeing it in fruit we ordered 1,000 plants when 
^^520 per 100; and now, having fruited on our own grounds 
have planted it largely for market, as we have great faiai in it on heavy, rich foil ’
