WORLD'S FINEST SELECTED NURSERY STOCK 



The "QUEEN" of All Strawberries for Quick Freezing 



VERSATILITY — Admirably adapted to prosper 

 and thrive in any locality where strawberries are 

 produced. Not only a competitor to such berries 

 as Blakemore, Premier, Fairfax, and Catskill. but 

 definitely superior on many counts. A truly versa- 

 tile strawberry inasmuch as it flourishes in any 

 type soil. However, like most varieties, it grows 

 best in damp, fertile soil. 



SIZE— In comparison to such popular straw- 

 berries as the Blakemore and Fairfax, the Polar 

 Queen fruit is oftimes as much as 40 per cent 

 larger and holds its size well, even to the last 

 picking, thus insuring top prices on any market. 



EYE- APPEAL— Especially appealing to a buyer's 

 eye because of its beautiful, bright, shining red 

 color that goes through to the very core; its 

 complete absence of a green tip ; its solid firmness 

 and the tendency for the green cap to grow well 

 away from the berry, making it easy to remove. 

 Its solid red color runs well up under the cap 

 showing a minimum of light red. Polar Queen 



is a combination of oustanding features that 

 can't be beaten. 



VIGOROUS PRODUCTIVITY — Polar Queen 

 makes a strong and healthy fruiting bed on a 

 wide range of soils, and its extra-heavy yields 

 are the talk of the trade.
