6 PETER HENDERSON &CO., NEW YORK.—POT-GROWN STRAWBERRY PLANTS. 
AUGUST LUTHER. 
(Extra Early—Perject Flowering.) 
A valuable Extra Early Strawberry. It was the earliest 
variety on our grounds last season, giving the first ripe berry 
on June 4th, and three days later the plants were full of 
bright red, roundish-conical berries, firm and of excellent 
quality for so early a berry. While we do not claim for this 
variety extraordinary size of fruit, vet it produces it in such 
abundance that the aggregate weight will compare favorably 
with the best of the large-berried sorts, and it continues to 
yield during a long season. 
Price (pot-grown plants), 60c. doz.; $4.00 per 100; $35.00 
per 1000.

BUBACH. 
(Mid-season—Pistillate.) 
Probably the best-known and most popular of all large 
strawberries. It is a wonder in its season of fruit, completely 
covering the ground about the plant with large bermes. The 
berries are remarkably large and continue large to the last 
picking; roundish, slightly fattened and unusually creased on 
one or both sides, medium firm and quality good; color orange 
scarlet, ripening well and even. It is certainly the largest 
yielder of big fruit that gro The plant is a beauty, strong, 
healthy, vigorous; but unfortunatley for us a poor producer 
of runners. It is strictly pistillate and requires some bi- 
sexual variety to be planted near to pollenize it. Price (pot- 
grown plants), 50c. per doz.;$3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000. 
Ae 
The Grand Strawberry ‘‘ Brandywine.’’ 
(Mid-season to Late 
Although the Brandywine has only recently been offered 
to the public, yet it is already world famous trom the superla- 
tively flattering reports in the Horticultural press from the 
experiment stations and from strawberry critics to whom a 
few plants were given fortrial. It has been thoroughly test- 
ed in many parts of the country and has given universal satis- 
faction, in fact, we doubt if any s yberry ever before has 
received such enthusiasite praise over so wide an extent of 
territory. 
The berries of the ‘“‘ Brandywine " 
immense size—very firm, solid and shapely for so large a 
berry. In general it is broadly heart-shaped without neck, 
occasionally fruits will be found shaped as if two berries were 
joined together; flesh red to the core, of delightful aroma 
are magnificent and of

rich, juicy and luscious. The seeds are but slightlv imbea ted 
which adds to its firmness. The color is of a_ nich, dark 
glossy scarlet. Colors uniformly all over, no white blotches 
nor green tips, and its large green calyx greatly 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, from mid-season until 
the very latest, holding up its size to the last and every berry 
coming to maturity. The plants of Brandywine are remark- 
ably vigorous, healthy and hardy, throwing out strong run- 
ners, the foliage is of the largest and thriftiest, entirely free 
from scald or blemish. Price (pot-grown plants), 50c. doz.; 
$3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000. 
If Strawterry Plants are desired by mail, add 10c, to the dozen price and 50c, to the 100 price,
