ST. REGIS.
Fruits from June to Frost.
(If wanted by Parcel Post, add 10c. per doz.)
We have pleasure in offering this fine, new.
almost sensational fruit, destined we believe
to be the most popular ever introduced.
It is the earliest of all red raspberries; be-
ginning to ripen in New Jersey from June
15th to 20th — just as the strawberry crop is
waning.
It is wonderfully prolific; the first or main
crop being far greater than that of any other
red variety known; it succeeds upon all soils,
and the canes are absolutely hardy.
It fruits on the old canes in generous quan-
tities until late in August. By that date
berries begin to ripen upon the young canes,
which continue to produce berries in increas-
ing numbers until severe frost.
The berries are a bright crimson, of large
size and surpassing quality — rich, sugary,
with full raspberry flavor. They are of ex-
ceedingly meaty, firm texture and keep in
good condition longer after being gathered, than any
other red raspberry.
The canes are of stocky, strong growth with a
great abundance of dark green leathery leaves, that
never scald nor sunburn. (See cut.)
Price, strong transplanted plants, 20c. each, $2.00
per doz.. $12 00 per 100.
