Brief Directions for Culture 



Perfect — versus — Imperfect Flowering- Strawberries — The blossoms of 

 strawberries are either staminate (perfect flowering) or are destitute of stamens 

 and are termed pistillate (imperfect flowering). Pistillate varieties must have a 

 row of some perfect flowered sort flowering at the same time planted every nine 

 or twelve feet apart among them, or better yet, every third or fourth plant in 

 the row, to pollenize their blossoms. When properly pollenized the pistillate 

 varieties are usually the most prolific. 



Strawberries require rich, well-tilled soil, the plants should be set 15 inches 

 apart, in rows 2 feet apart, 100 plants will plant 4 rows, 30 feet long. Firm the 

 plants well in the soil, keep thoroughly cultivated and cut off all runners. In the 

 middle of December cover the beds to a depth of 3 inches with salt meadow 

 hay, straw or leaves. In April, as soon as the plants show an indication of 

 growth, push the covering away from the plants to allow them to come up 

 through. This "mulching" protects the plants from the cold in winter and the 

 heat in summer, keeps the fruit clean and prevents the growth of weeds.
