The Dewberry is one of the most recentacquisitions among garden fruits. As a cultivated fruit,it is American, and the varieties are forms of nativespecies. It is distinguished from the blackberry chieflyby its low, trailing habit, its method of propagating bytips instead of suckers, and its few-flowered cymoseclusters. Four distinct species are found in cultivation.(1) The northern Dewberry (Ruhus viUosits, Ait., until. lately known as B. Cini,i,lf}isis). In this species theleaflets are thin and deciduous, the stems sparsely andlightly prickly, and the flower-stalk slightly fuzzy butnot glandular. A well marked sub-type has been set offfrom this species, comprising the Luoretia Dewberry DEWBEKRY (var. rorihaceus, Bailey), which is a stronger plant,with weilge-ovate, jagged leaflets, long flower stalks,large flowers and leaf-like sepals. Figs. 697, 698. (2)
