The Grand Strawberry, '^ BRANDYWINE." 



(Mid-season to Laic — Perfect Flowering.) 



The Brandywine Strawberry is one of 

 Uie well known and well liked reliables 

 and is endorsed by superlatively flattering 

 reports in the Horticultural press, from 

 the experiment stations and from straw- 

 berry critics. It has been thoroughly 

 icsted in many parts of the country and 

 !.:is ^jiven universal satisfaction, in fact, 

 we doubt if any strawberry ever before 

 has received such enthusiastic praise over 

 so wide an extent of territory. 



The berries of the " Brand>'\vine " arc 

 magnificent and of immense size — very 

 lirm, solid and shapely for so large a 

 berry. In general it is broadly heart- 

 sliaped without neck, occasionally fruits 

 w ill be found shai)ed as if two berries were 

 joined together; (Icsh red to the core, of 

 ilclighlful aroma, rich, juicy and luscious. 

 Tlie seeds are but slightly _ imbedded 

 which adds to its firmness. The color is 

 of a rich, dark glossy scarlet. Colors 

 uniformly all over, no while blotches nor 

 green tips, and its large green calyx 

 creatly adds to the attractiveness of the 

 fruit. In productiveness the Brandy- 

 wine strawberry is truly a marvel, both 

 in size and quantity. The splendid large 

 berries are borne on stiff, stout stems, 

 ripening in succession for a long period, 

 Irom mid-season until the very latest, 

 iiok'.ing up its .size to the last and every 

 berry coming to maturity. The plants 

 of Brandywine are remarkably vigorous 

 healthy and hardy, throwing out strong 

 runners, the foliage is of the largest and 

 ihriltiest, entirely free from scald or 

 blemish. Price (pot-frown plants), 50c.

Bederwood. 



(RACKSTER.) 



(Early — Perfect Flowering.) 

 An exceedingly valuable early straw- 

 berry. Conceded to be one of the best 

 early berries for home u.se and worthy 

 of great praise. 1 1 is not only; very early 

 but immensely productive. The plant is 

 faultless, of healthy, vigorous growth, and 

 an enormous bearer, perhaps equal to any 

 of the pistillate sorts in this respect, the 

 berries are of large size, of regular, round- 

 ish form, light scarlet, of excellent qual- 

 i! v, remaining in fruit a long time. We 

 iiiVked berries from it every day for a 

 month last season.

Bubach. 



{.Mid-sciion — I'iililliilc.) 

 Probably the best-known and most 

 popular of all large strawberries. It is a 

 wonder in its season of fruit, eompletclv 

 covering the ground about the plant with 

 large berries. The berries arc remarkably 

 large and continue large to the last 

 nicking; roundi.sh. slightly flattened and 

 unusually creased on one or both sides, 

 medium firm and quality good; color 

 orange scarlet, riiiening well and even. 

 It is certainly the largest yicldcr of big 

 fruit that grows. The plant is a beauty, 

 strong, healthy, vigorous; but unfor- 

 tunately for us a poor producer of runners 

 It is strictly pistillate and requires some 

 bisexual variety to be planted near to 

 pollenize it. Price (pot-grown plants).
