PETl' R HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.— POT-GROWN STRAWBERRY PLANTS. 



Challenge. 



(Mid-ieason — Perject F lowering.) 



A variety of surpassing merit. 

 The plant is a large and slrong 

 grower — healthy in every way — 

 rooting deeply, consequently a 

 great drought resister. The size 

 of the fruit and the abundance 

 with which it is produced is won- 

 derful. Even medium sized plants 

 are " loaded " down with hand- 

 some berries. The berries average 

 very large — are quite uniform in 

 shape — occasionally a little cor- 

 rugated, but never coxcombed. 

 The color is bright to dark red, 

 with glossy surface and dark red 

 colored inside. The quality is 

 excellent, sprightly and sweet with 

 a delightful aroma.

Clyde. 



{Early — Perfect Flowering.) 

 Few varieties have given better 

 .satisfaction in all parts of the 

 country. It is one of the very best 

 medium early varieties — it is a 

 week earlier than Bubach and very 

 firm; large, bright scarlet berries 

 of fine flavor. The plants are 

 strong growers — <leep rooting, 

 stands drought well, free from 

 rust and disease. It thrives par- 

 ticularly well during a dry season 

 — with plenty of sun — bringing its 

 fruit to maturity under surpris- 

 ingly unfavorable conditions. It 

 is a great basket filler, the whole 

 vigor of the plant seems to go into 

 fruit, and we highly recommend 

 it. (See cm.)

EXCELSIOR. 



{F.xlra Early — Perfect 

 Floivering.) 

 This new variety promises 

 to be one of the very best 

 extra earlies yet introduced — 

 it ripens three to four days 

 earlier than Michel's Early and 

 is a vigorous, healthy grower — 

 unusually productive for so 

 early a sort — outyielding other 

 standard eailies two to one, 

 while the fruit averages large, 

 is ver>' handsome and firm. 



Price (pot-grown plants). 50c. 

 per doz.; $3..50 per 100; S30.00

 extends through the flesh well towards 

 the heart. The texture is fine grainc ' 

 and the flavor pleasantly mild an 

 delicate. The plant is of vigorous 

 growth carrying large protecting 

 foliage and is ver>' productive.

(Late — Perfect Flowering.) 



One of the best late strawberries 

 ever introduced. Strictly fancy. The 

 fruits are uniformly large and perfect 

 in form and firm. Color, bright crim- 

 son and as glossy as if varnished. It 

 has a large bright green calyx, which 

 greatly adds to the beauty. This is 

 one of the latest and best flavored 

 berries we have. The quality is all 

 that can be desired, gi\'ing out a 

 most delicious aroma suggestive of 

 both strawberries a'Jd peaches. It 

 ripens from laic Vo-yery late. The 

 plants are ver>' vlgo>'3us growers. In 

 well fertilized soil I ■^.'^ berry is a big 

 yicldcr. r
