NEW AMERICAN 

 TREE STRAWBERRY 



THIS new Strawberry, introduced from America some years ago, 

 has proved itself to be the premier cropper and money producer 

 on the market to-day. It grows to a height of 2 ft., producing 

 an abundance of firm berries of dehcious flavour and fine dessert quality. 

 The fruit hangs in bunches on strong stems well clear of the ground, 

 obviating the necessity, in most cases, of strawing. For jam making and 

 canning purposes, this Strawberry is far ahead of anything previously 

 known, as the berries remain whole after boiling. The plant is very 

 deep rooting, and is more able to withstand drought than any other 

 variety. It is also frost resisting. Brings 50 per cent, more on the 

 market than any other Strawberry. The demand is tremendous ! 

 Secure yours NOW ! Price, 12/6 per dozen ; 45/- for 50 ; 80/- 

 per 100. Packing and carriage extra.
