Cyclopedia of American horticulture, comprising suggestions for cultivation of horticultural plants, descriptions of the species of fruits, vegetables, flowers and ornamental plants sold in the United States and Canada, together with geographical and biographical sketches, and a synopsis of the vegetable kingdom. Gardening -- Dictionaries; Plants -- North America encyclopedias. DEWBERRY 475 (var. roribaccus, Bailey), which is a stronger plant, with wedge-ovate, jagged leaflets, long flower stalks, targe flowers and leaf-like sepals. Pigs. 697, 698. (2). 697. Lucretia Dewberry (X H) The Bartel type {B. irwisiis, Bailey), with stout, stiff stems, straight, reflexed prickles, large leaflets with simple teeth, and having the unopened buds surmounted by a tip formed by the sepals which clasp around it. {:t) The southern Dewberry (, Michx.). This has round, shrubby, trailing stems, bearing strongly re- curved or reflexed prickles, glandular-tipped hairs and bristles. The leaves are evergreen, leathery and smooth, with numerous stout, recurved or reflexed prickles on the veins and petioles as well as on the flower-stems. It is represented in cultivation by the Manatee and a few others. (4) The western Dewberry (S. vitifoHiis, Cham. & Schlecht.). This has round, woody stems, usually weak and trailing but sometimes upriarht, the fruiting branches numerous, armed with slender prickles, often rendering the smaller parts densely setose. It includes the Skagit Chief and others. Still another species, better known as the cut-leaved blackberry, has been long in cultivation, chiefly for or- nament. Its stems are armed with strong, recurved prickles and its leaves are much parted and divided. The culture of the Dewberry is much the same as that of the blackberry, except in the matter of training, though it is thought to thrive better on light and sandy soils than the blackberry. No summer pruning of the canes is needed, although the old canes may be removed as soon
