9 PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.— POT-GROWN STRAWBERRY PLANTS. 



Trencb everbearing 



, Carfle TruHed Strawberry, 

 %A1NT=ANT0INE DE PADOUE." 



THIS NEW large fruiting French Everbearing Strawberry possesses remarkable characteristics when grown under 

 congenial conditions. Our pot-grown plants of these— set out this summer should fruit bountifully 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 strawberry is the result 

 of a cross, produced in France, between the everbearing "Saint Joseph" and the famous English strawberry "Royal 

 Sovereign," and it has proven to be superior to all other perpetual strawberries. It is of compact, vigorous growth, the 

 fruit stalks are strong and erect, carrying 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 flavor, and keeps e.Kceedingly well. It is a true perpetua] 

 strawberry producing splendid berries during the whole summer up to October, and is also adapted for forcinij for 

 winter fruiting. The French gardeners when they want an abundance of late fruit, cut off the first flowers from the 

 large plants and also keep the runners cut which throws the \ngor into the late fruit ; 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. It received a first-class certificate from the 

 "Societe Nationale d' Horticulture de France." Price, (fiot-groum plants) 1.5c. each ; $1.^5 per dor.; $8.00 per 100.
