We grow our strawberry plants in pots, they are much superior to the ordinary ground layers usually sold, as 

 there is no loss of fine roots in taking them up, and they can be shipped safely to distant parts of the United States 

 and Canada, and be transplanted at any season, and it scarcely checks their growth ; consequently, if planted before 

 the 15th of September, they will grow into large plants and bear a full crop of berries next spring, being a clear gain 

 of a year over "ground layers," which is certainly worth more than the slight difference in first cost. 



The blossoms^ of strawberries are either bisexual Imperfect floiverivg) or are destitute of 

 stamens and are termed pistillate or {imperfect floweriitg.) Pistillate varieties must 

 have a row of a perfect-flowered sort, planted every nitte or twelve feet apart among 

 them, or, better yet, every third or fourth plant in the row, to pollenize their blossoms. 

 Whe?l properly fertilized the pistillate varieties are the most prolific. 



Complete cultural instructions mailed free, to those requesting them, on receipt of order for

SHOWN IN COLORS ON THE FRONT OF THIS CATALOGUE. 



PICKS FROM THE PLANT HULLED READY FOR THE TABLE. 



No more stained fingers. 



No tiresome task of hulling strawberries. 



( Bisexual ; mid-season.) 



This is the most remarkable strawberry ever introduced 

 possessing the peculiarity when ripe of parting readily from 

 the calyx or "shuck" which remains On the stem of the 

 plants as the berries are picked. The berries are ready for 

 the table as soon as picked, thus obviating a tedious and dis 

 agreeable task, a feature quickly appreciated by housekeepers. 

 The plant is a strong, luxuiiant grower, hardy, producing 

 abundantly very large berries of uniform, obtusely conical 

 shape and of a bright crimson color, and of the best quality. 

 As a market berry it is said to be very salable, bringing more 

 money per quart than others on account of its fine appearance. 

 Price, ( pot grown plants), $i.oo per doz ; $6.00 per 100.
