NOTE: Be sure to buy your blueberry plants by graded 

 height and age rather than by age alone. The plants we 

 offer are of bearing age. 



We suggest from eight to twelve plants for a family of five 

 people. Ask for and follow our free cultural directions. Plant 

 our blueberries this year for pleasure and profit. 

 Varieties listed in order of ripening 



WEYMOUTH (6501) Earliest of all. Ripens berries 

 quickly for early markets. Fruit is above medium in size and 

 usually of fair dessert quality. Bush erect, open, spreadmg, 

 of average vigor. 



EARLIBLUE (6502) Fruit clusters of medium size; ber- 

 ries oblate, light blue, very firm, sub-acid. Flavor very good. 

 Earliblue ripens early, with Weymouth. Bushes are up- 

 right, very vigorous, well shaped and good producers. 



STANLEY (6503) A recent development recognized in 

 New Jersey blueberry sections as one of the outstanding 

 blueberries. Vigorous plants, large berries, very productive. 



BLUERAY (6504) The fruit is large, with a medium 

 light blue color, medium scar, fme flavor, and resists crack- 

 ing. It matures with Ivanhoe and Rancocas. The bush is 

 hardy and very productive. 



IVANHOE (6505) Fruits are large, attractive, slightly 

 later than Stanley, with a good blue color. Flavor is good. 

 Plants are vigorous, productive, and more tolerant of canker 

 than Stanley. 



RANCOCAS (6506) The bush of slender, vigorous, up- 

 right habit rarely surpasses 6 feet in height. Winter twigs 

 are a dark red. The berries are somewhat larger than those 

 of Rubel and begin to ripen several days earlier. 



CONCORD (6507) The bush is upright and at maturity 

 exceeds 6 feet in height. Young growth is bright red in 

 winter. The berries are large, frequently reaching % mch in 

 diameter. They usually ripen a few days earlier than Rubel 

 and are fine in flavor and appearance. 



The large cultivated blueberry has unlimited pos- 

 sibilities as a fresh fruit, a canned or frozen product, or 

 for pure ornamentation. The plants should have a 

 place in every farm or home garden lot. 



Blueberries require an acid soil containing an 

 abundance of organic material. They need a good sup- 

 ply of soil moisture, with good drainage. Most good 

 gardeners will mulch their plants rather than culti- 

 vate them, since the plants are shallow rooted and do 

 not tolerate close working. 



Good blueberry soil can be created by use of quan- 

 tities o f compost or other organic material, worked into 

 the surface of the soil. Use aluminum sulphate to bring 

 the pH level down to an optimum 5 to 6 range. 



Blueberries need pollination, and at least two va- 

 rieties should be planted. Free and complete cultural 

 directions sent upon request. 



BLUECROP (6508) Fruit clusters of Bluecrop are 

 large. Berries are roundish oblate, very light blue, very 

 firm. Sub-acid; flavor good. Bluecrop ripens in midseason 

 with Concord and Atlantic. Bush upright and vigorous; very 

 consistent producer. 



ATLANTIC (6509) Late midseason. A cross between 

 Jersey and Pioneer which has two outstanding traits— one 

 being its superior size and non-cracking during wet 

 weather, the other is its handsome color and fine flavor. A 

 heavy producer fruiting about with Rubel but much larger 

 in size, better in quality and flavor. Requires less time to 

 prune than Rubel. 



JERSEY (6510) The bush is vigorous and large. The 

 winter color of the young growth is a light red over a gold- 

 brown. Berries are the largest of any here listed, of a very 

 light color, and ripen at the same time as Rubel. 



BERKELEY (651 1 ) Fruit is light blue. Considered one 

 of the largest blueberries yet introduced. Berries are not 

 subject to crack, ripen about a week after Stanley. Plants 

 are very productive. 



HERBERT (651 2) Fruit clusters are loose; fruit ripens 

 about the same time as Jersey, earlier than CoVille but later 

 than Berkeley. Berries of Herbert are large and carry their 

 size well through ripening season. Firm, resistant to crack- 

 ing; color about the same as Jersey, Rubel and Dixi. Flavor 

 is equal to the best varieties. Fruit hangs well on bush. 

 Bushes flower late, are thrifty growers and consistently 

 productive. 



COVILLE (651 3) Selected to give larger berries of good 

 quality and color. Ripening after Dixi, Rubel and Jersey, 

 Coville is rated as our latest blueberry. Large, good blue 

 color, good quality. Hangs well to clusters even when ripe, 

 thereby requiring less picking. Thrifty plants.
