− | Rubus neglectus, Peck. Purple-cane Raspberries. Fig. 3494. A large and variable race of hybrids between R. strigosus and R. occidentalis occurs both naturally (Rubus neglectus, Peck, 22d Rep. Reg. N. Y. State Univ. 53, 1869) and in the garden (Bailey, Amer. Gard. 11:721, 1890). These plants prop. either by "tips" or suckers, usually by the latter. The fl.-clusters are open and straggling, and the fr. ranges in color from yellow to purple. As a rule, the fr. is aggregated at the end of the cluster, but is scattering below. The Purple-Cane type of raspberry belongs here. Prominent varieties are Shaffer, Philadelphia (now nearly out of cult.), Gladstone, and probably Caroline.
