SOMETHING NEW - NO THORNS 
\TRUE WHITE BLACKBERRY \ GARDENIA 
A NEW THORNLESS DEWBERRY 
_ Alfred Blackberry 
This creamy white black- 
berry sounds impossible but 
it’s true. When mixed with jet 
black ones it makes a most 
wonderful dish. Berries are 
larger than Eldorado, very few 
seeds and quite sweet when 
fully ripe. Strong growers and 
very productive. 1 year No. 1 
plants, 6 for $1.00; 12 for 
$1.75; 25 for $3.00; 50 for 
A genuine dewberry—trich, sweet 
and luscious in flavor as they al- 
ways are—but one without thorns. 
What is more, Gardenia does not 
produce thorny shoots or plants 
when it grows older as some so- 
called thornless plants do. Very 
vigorous, healthy and hardy plants 
that have the heavy-bearing dew- 
berry habit. Gardenia has been

\THORNLESS BOYSENBERRY. 
OFTEN BEARS FRUIT 2 TO 3 INCHES LONG 
This is the extra early ripening strain of Thornless Boysenberry with canes 
as smooth as a grape vine. RIPENS ABOUT TWO WEEKS EARLIER THAN 
BOYSENBERRY. The introducer claims even heavier yields from this Thorn- 
less Boysenberry than the common Boysenberry. This new strain Thornless 
Boysenberry is identical to the Boysenberry except that there are no thorns 
and it ripens earlier. This is a good feature as the early berries bring much 
more money. The Thornless is as hardy, rugged and heavy bearing as its 
parent the Boysenberry. Vines grow long, and this pretty apple-green vine 
loaded with giant purple beauties is a sight you will never forget, and after 
you taste a handful of them, other berries will go begging for a while. Delicious 
with cream and sugar, and when made into jam, it’s the last word. 1 year 
No. 1 plants, 6 for 95c; 12 for $1.65; 25 for $2.60; 50 for $4.00; 100 for $7.45;

12 for $4.25; 25 for $7.95.
