SELECTED STRAWBERRIES 



NOTE — When Setting Out Strawberry Plants be careful not to let the roots get dry. It is a good plan to dip the roots in 

 water, taking care not to wet the crowns, and then "heel in" in moist shady ground until you are ready to plant. Press the 

 earth down firmly on the roots, so as to exclude the air and hot drying winds. This is important.
