Some Startling Facts about the 
BOYSENBERRY 
GIGANTIC IN SIZE 
The Boysenberry is the largest of all berries, averaging 12 to 2 inches in length and 
1 inch in diameter—just twice the size of the Youngberry, which has heretofore been the 
most popular berry grown in California. The berries are highly flavored, with inconspicu- 
ous seeds, and they are exceptionally fine for all uses to which berries are put—eating 
fresh, canning, jams, jellies and pies. Boysenberry pies are so good we sell more than 5900 
here at our farm every Sunday, and more than 100 every day in the year (none wholesale). 
Housewives prefer them to all other berries when once they have used them. Our customers 
buy more Boysenberry jam and jelly over our counter than any other two kinds combined. 
Boysenberries are easy to grow, and the strong-growing, vigorous vine produces excep- 
tionally heavy crops. The plants are simply loaded with the big fruit clusters which ripen 
during June, July and August. They produce just as many berries as any ordinary Black- 
berry, but the crop is much larger because each Boysenberry is so much larger. 
With ordinary Blackberries, it takes from 120 to 160 to make a pound, while Boysen- 
berries run 55 to 65 per pound when grown in the same field and with same care. This 
difference in size makes them so much easier to pick. It’s really a pleasure. 
PROFITS 
You can easily understand why the Boysenberries, when placed on the market and 
displayed beside ordinary berries, are going to command a higher price and sell much more 
rapidly. The appearance and size alone will attract the buyer and the quality of the fruit 
climaxes the sale. 
WHERE WILL THEY GROW 
Ten years ago there were less than 100 plants in existence. Seven years ago we intro- 
duced Boysenberries to the public and they have grown in favor so fast that now Boysen- 
berries are produced by the carload in quite a number of different districts. They have 
proved quite hardy. We have had favorable reports from most states; even as far north as 
New York, Michigan, and Minnesota.
