 superior quality; although I have said thus 

 much respecting this well-known fruit, yet there 

 are several other very fine flavoured strawberries 

 which ought to be cultivated both for their size

 flavour; and as the under mentioned strawberries 

 will force successfully, they will form a fine col- 

 lection. 



Keen's Imperial Wilmot's Superb 



Downton Roseberry 



Alpine New Hautboy 



The scarlet alpine is a plentiful bearer, both 

 on the main stool, and also on the early runners 

 of the former year; this strawberry, with the 

 old scarlet, are decidedly two of the best for 

 early forcing, and they produce a supply of long 

 continuance.
