Large Rich Red 
Heavy Producer 
FALLBEARING 
A heavy fruiting. Big, rich, red berry of very fine 
flavor and quality. It does exceptionally well in all 
the Northern States and as far west as Missouri. It 
seems to be a good producer in most any type of 
soils; and at its best on rich loam. Gem is a little 
better plant maker than the Mastodon, therefore, 
would suggest putting the plants a little farther 
apart in the row, about 16 inches is a good distance. 
Gem is also a very valuable variety for its spring 
crop. It produces a nice crop about the same time 
as the midseason varieties do. We grow Several 
acres on our farms for their berries and like Gem 
very much. This season we picked Gem as late as 
November the 14th, and noticed quite a few green 
berries and blossoms on the plants. It surely will 
give you a long fruiting season and it takes a 
mighty cold freeze to stop them.
