New Strawberry. "SUCCESS 



(Early to Mid-season — Perfect 

 Flowering.) 



This new carlv fruiting 

 strawberry is one of the most 

 beautiful as well as the earliest 

 large berry we know of. and 

 althouKh early it holds out 

 well throuKh the strawberry 

 season bringing ever> berry to 

 perfection; the last berries 

 coming in with the later va- 

 rieties and almost as large as 

 the first borne. The berries are 

 of large globular form, slightly 

 conical, and of a light bright 

 scarlet; the flavor being al- 

 ways fine, mild, sweet and 

 rich. They are a little soft for 

 shipping, but this fact em- 

 phasizes their superiority for 

 the home garden. The plant is 

 a vigorous, strong grower, free 

 from rust and abundantly pro- 

 ductive. We unreservedly 

 recommend it for the home 

 garden.

FRENCH EVERBEARING LARQE=FRUITED STRAWBERRY, 



Saint=Antoine de Padoue." 



TTHIS large fruiting French Everbearing Strawber.-y 

 Vt possesses remarkable characteristics when grown under 

 congenial conditions. Our pot-grown plants — set out this 

 summer. shouM fruit the following spring, and continue to 

 bear, though more sparingly throughout the summer. In 

 addition to this, the plants throw out strong runners which 

 form new plants, and if not cut from the parent plants will 

 also fruit the same season, thus giving a continuous supply 

 of delicious strawberries until frost. This remarkable straw- 

 berry is of compact, vigorous growth, the fruit stalks are 

 strong and erect, tarrying the fruit well above the foliage. 



The fruit is large and of a rich dark red' color — handsome and 

 uniform in shape — firm, of delicious flavoi". The French 

 gardeners, when they want an abundance of late fruit, cut off 

 the first flowers from the large plants and also keep the run- 

 ners cut, which throws the vigor into the latefruit; others, 

 besides, keeping the flowers cut from the large plants, allow 

 three or four first runners to root only, thus throwing the 

 strength of the parent plant into the young plants and depend 

 upon these to furnish the late fruit. Price (pot-grown plants), 

 $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100.
