Genuine 
Boysenberry 
The New Fruit with a 
Different Flavor 
Boysenberry is a sensational new fruit introduced 
in California. It is a cross between the Loganberry, 
Raspberry and Blackberry. Imagine, if you can, a 
berry combining the best of these: fruits in one giant, 
gorgeous wine-colored berry, with a distinct and deli- 
cious flavor you'll never forget. That’s Boysenberry! 
It is sweet and juicy, yet amply firm to withstand 
shipping to market. It is ideal for freezing, and so far 
the supply of berries is not nearly equal to the de- 
mand for this choice, frozen delicacy. 
All of our Boysenberry are propagated’ from sev- 
eral generations of Michigan-grown plants, and are 
perfectly hardy, so that they may be safely grown in 
the Northern states, as well as in the South. 
In tests made by the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture, 
90 berries have been known to fill a quart box; but a 
conservative number for the average crop would be 
from 75 to 85 berries. 
Boysenberry is a highly profitable crop, and the 
cost of planting stock is now low enough that you 
can't afford to wait longer to get started. Plant this 
year and cash in on a big-money crop. Planted 8 ft. 
by 8 ft., six hundred plants will set an acre. (If inter- 
ested in large quantities, write for special quotations.)

NEW THORN LESS BOYSENBERRY ‘<<, station on 
A new and Improved Boysenberry. Has all the good features and characteristics of 
the common Boysenberry, but is absolutely thornless, and ripens 3 weeks earlier! 
Fruit is borne on long, sturdy vines entirely free from thorns, enabling one to step 
into the garden and in a few short minutes gather a generous quantity without the 
discomfort experienced in picking the thorny variety. When grown commercially its 
extreme earliness is a decided advantage, and insures the highest prices. 
NEW PARKER Hardy Thornless YOUNGBERRY 
The newest and best of all Youngberries to date. So rapidly has the Youngberry 
been developed within the past few years that it is a far cry from the original thorny 
type to the New Parker that we offer for the first time this season. The fruit is very 
large, a handsome dark wine-red color, sweet and delicious, and almost seedless. 
Parker is absolutely thornless, much hardier than the common Youngberry, and very 
productive. It has a distinct place for itself along with the Boysenberries, and your 
fruit garden: is not complete without at least a few plants. While our supply this year 
is limited, we offer it at no increase in price over the older kinds previously listed.
