A Kansas gentleman is still pushing this as something very new, for which he expects to get a large price, and with the announcement that it is a native of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, and is wholly "owned" by him. This seems to be what was once offered as the Nevada "evergreen" blackberry, which has been shown in our pages to be the cut-leaved English blackberry, common in nurseries for the past fifty years.

There is no native blackberry in the Sierra Nevada Mountains that any one need hanker after, except a form of the Black cap, Rubus leucoder-mis.
