BOYSENBERRY 
This big juicy Boysenberry is a cross be- 
tween the Loganberry, Blackberry, and 
Red Raspberry. Attaining a giant size— 
sometimes over 2 inches—these berries 
will continue to ripen over a period of 
6 to 8 weeks. Almost seedless. Deep 
maroon in color. Sugary-sweet and juicy, 
yet firm enough to handle without any 
special care. The new Egyptian Thorn- 
less Boysenberries are absolutely free 
from thorns. They’re smooth as a Grape 
vine—can be handled with bare hands. 
Plant 8 to 10 feet apart each way. They 
will grow trailing along the ground or can 
be trellised or wired. Prune vines after 
fruiting. In Northern States, cover before 
hard frost.
