RASPBERRY BUSHES 
Plum Farmer. (Black.) Do you know that this is 
- -* one of the largest and best of the 
blackcap raspberries? At Green’s Fruit Farm it has not been 
surpassed in size or productiveness. It ripens early and 
quickly. The fruit is of enormously large size, often measur¬ 
ing an inch in diameter. It sells at the highest price. 
Herbert. (Red.) Not excelled as the hardiest, most 
-1 beautiful red raspberry. It originated in 
Canada, and 
has withstood 
without injury 
40 degrees be¬ 
low zero. The 
cane of the Her¬ 
bert is very 
strong and vig- 
orous; the 
leaves large and 
healthy; it is 
claimed never to 
have been af¬ 
fected with dis¬ 
eases of any kind. Fruit oblong, very bright red, largest of 
all. It is firm, sweet, subacid, juicy, and of good flavor, qual¬ 
ity very good. Season begins a few days before Cuthbert. 
An exceptionally fine variety both for garden and commer¬ 
cial planting. 
New York State Experiment Station says: “It is twenty- 
five years since the Herbert red raspberry came to light and it 
has been grown more or less in New York for ten years, yet 
in this time it has not attained the popularity it deserves.” 
Cuthbert Red. 
Large, Productive, Attractive. It 
yields bountifully of large and beau¬ 
tiful bright red berries, which are easily picked and command 
good prices. 
St. Reais (Ranere). This is one of the most notable 
-1___* everbearing red raspberries 
ever introduced. It commences to ripen early and continues 
to fruit until fall. The fruit is a bright crimson color of large 
size, rich and sweet. 
Columbian. A strong grower, unexcelled for pro- 
- ductiveness and desirable for canning. 
At Green’s Fruit Farm nine rows, 150 feet long, yielded 66 
bushels. Color, reddish purple. 
Scarff Mammoth Black Raspberry. 
A very productive variety of black raspberry, absolutely 
hardy. Canes free from disease and strong upright growers, 
a trifle larger in size than Cumberland. 
The Syracuse Red Raspberry. This is the 
-—-.—— greatest 
raspberry. It has no superior. It was introduced by us. 
The demand for plants was so great every’plant we had was 
ordered, utterly exhausting the 
supply so that last year we were 
compelled to withdraw it entirely 
from the catalog. This year we 
have been able to preserve enougli 
plants to propagate a moderate 
supply, but not enough to offer in 
quantities of over ten plants of 
this berry. The Syracuse red 
raspberry does not propagate rap¬ 
idly as does the Cuthbert, there¬ 
fore the price for plants can never 
be as low as the price of other varie¬ 
ties. Our patrons have written us 
that the few plants ordered by 
them of Syracuse have yielded the largest and finest fruit 
they ever saw. These patrons would like to buy more Syra¬ 
cuse plants and ask for explanations as to why they have not 
been recently cataloged. The explanation is given above. It 
is more than double the size of other varieties. It is an abun¬ 
dant bearer. The color is bright red. It is of superior quality. 
It is hardy in western New York. It wintered safely during 
the winter of 1917-18, which was a severe test of its hardi¬ 
ness. It bears during a long season. Taking this variety alto¬ 
gether it is the greatest raspberry the world has ever known.
