TINGLE'S NURSERIES, PITTSVILLE, MARYLAND 



TENNESSEE PROIilFIC. Berries medium size 



and light in color. Flesh tine grained and ©f 



good quality. Fairly good shipper. Very pro- 

 ductive. Good pollenizer. 



WABFIELD. Very popular for canning on 

 account of its rich flesh and high color. It is 

 a vigorous grower and persistent plant maker. 

 If not allowed to get too thick it will produce a 

 great crop of medium-sized, highly-flavored and 

 highly-colored berries. Blossoms imperfect. 



WIL.L.IAM BELT. A king among strawberries. 

 The plant is vigorous and succeeds upon a great 

 variety of soils, and invariably yields very heavily. 

 It begins to ripen quite early and continues almost 

 to the close of the season. It is firm and a good 

 shipper and gives large pickings for a longer 

 period than most varieties. 



MIXED PLANTS. In digging plants we some- 

 times get up too many of certain varieties and 

 have them left over. Occasionally a plot in the 

 field becomes mixed. My mixed plants are made 

 up either from plants left over or from a mixed 

 plot. They will be good plants and when possible 

 we will tell you the name of the varieties. 



PROGRESSIVE— The most popular fall bearer 



EVERBEARING STRAWBERRIES 



Bears from June till Thanlisgiving. 



These everbearing strawberries are pre-eminently the home-garden berry, although the frui. 

 may be shipped short distances if properly packed. The method of raising these berries is tht 

 same as for the other sorts, excepting that for the first season (that is, the same season thej 

 are planted), all blossoms that come before the middle of July should be kept cut off. Thej 

 not only produce a good crop of berries the first year planted, but the following year they fruit 

 at the same time as the old standard sorts and then produce another crop in the fall. 



PROGRESSIVE. This is generally considered 

 the best of thef all. Produces immense crops of 

 medium size berries of the very highest flavor, 

 even better than most of the "June only" varieties. 

 If you have never grown strawberries of any sort 

 you will be safe in planting these. 



PERFECTION-Rightly named 



SUPERB. In some sections, especially the 

 North, this is considered better than Progressive, 

 but for the South and Middle States I believe 

 Progressive the best. The berries of Superb are 

 larger than the Progressive, but it does not pro- 

 duce half as many of them, nor is it usually as 

 good a plant maker. The berries resemble those 

 of the Chesapeake. 



PEERLESS. Better than Superb, being a more 

 vigorous grower, more productive of equally as 

 large fruit and fully equal to Superb in quality. 

 If you have been growing Superb try a few 

 Peerless. 



TOP NOTCH. A strong, luxuriant grower, not 

 affected by any disease. One of the most pro- 

 ductive of the everbearers, as large as the Superb 

 and much more productive with me. If you want 

 something extra fancy try Top Notch. 



AMERICUS. The berries are medium to large 

 in size, firm and of the very highest flavor, very 

 spicy; the flavor is entirely different from any 

 other strawberry that I have ever tasted. 



IDEAL. One of the newest of the everbearers. 

 Has a little smaller plant than the Superb and the 

 berry is a litttle smaller, but it is much more 

 productive. 



MINNESOTA No. 1017. The plants are good 

 sturdy growers, produce a goodly number of 

 runners, besides stooling heavily. The fruit that 

 each individual plant produces is almost in- 

 credible. They simply lay about the plants in 

 piles. The fruit is good size, round in shape, 

 deep red in color and very firm and of good 

 quality. 



PERFECTION. This is a new variety of ever- 

 bearers that we firmly believe will soon be at the 

 top of the list when it comes to everbearers. 

 Perfection is a good plant maker and produces 

 a wonderfully large crop of large size and most 

 delicious fruit. Our supply of this variety is not 

 large and must limit each customer to not more 

 than one hundred plants.
