Parry.

 but is better. Fruit uniformly large, firm, beautiful 

 in color and of excellent quality. Berries run large to 

 the end of the season. A strong grower. Price, 

 ( pot-grown plants,) y.c. per doz., $3.50 per 100. 



Porter's Seedling, 



The Earliest Strawberry Grown. 



{Bisexual: Extra Early.) 

 This variety is chiefly valuable on account of its ex- 

 treme earliness. Out of nearly 203 sorts in our trial 

 grounds, this for two seasons has given us ripe berries 

 several days ahead of any other ; the berries are of 

 good size, bright red and fair flavor. If you want to 

 have strawberries before your neighbor, you should 

 grow a few of Porter's Seedling. Price, (pot-grown 

 plants?) 75c. per doz., $.00 per 100.

PRINCESS. 





The Sweetest of Strawberries. 



A tall luxuriant grower, with large, dark green foliage, 

 free from rust or disease, very proline, enduring extremes 

 of heat or cold. It has been tested on different soils for 

 six years ; it will grow on any soil the same as the Cres- 

 cent. The blossom is large a'nd perfect and always sets 

 perfect fruit. 



The fruit is produced in great abundance on tall, stout 

 stems, which stand up from six to eight inches the entire 

 saason, holding its load of berries from the ground so they 

 do not get dirty, rotten or scalded. The fruit is given the 

 best chance to mature and ripens all over at once, leaving 

 no green spots or white tips. It is beautiful in color, be- 

 ing of a dark glossy red, which alone will make it an or- 

 nament for any table. They are so beautiful in appear- 

 ance that the moment they' are put on the market they 

 will sell for the highest price. The flavor is delicious and 

 very sweet ; being one of the sweetest of strawberries, it 

 can be called the honey strawberry; while its fine aro- 

 matic flavor, resembling that of "the wild strawberry, 

 makes it one of the most delicious of berries. Price, 

 (pot-groum-plants,) 75c. per doz., $;.oo per 100.
