SELECT MISSIONARY 



For the past 25 

 years Town- 

 sends Missionary has been the leading market variety in 

 Florida and several other Southern states. It was the Mis- 

 sionary that put Florida on the map as a strawberry state. 

 When properly grown, the Missionary is a large blood red, 

 solid, firm berry, moderately productive, firm enough to ship 

 any reasonable distance, and commands the highest prices. 

 Townsend's Nurseries are always headquarters for the BEST 

 MISSIONARY PLANTS. 



ftP RIIRBI (medium early) Dr. Burrill, or Dun- 



I^IV. LM \J IV s\ I Lm Lb lap, whichever you wish to call it, 

 is an old-time favorite in many sections, and notwithstanding 

 the better varieties on the list, we always sell out every plant 

 we grow each year. Season medium early, fruit medium to 

 large, color dark red when fully ripe, quality excellent, tex- 

 ture moderately firm, and very productive. Will grow any- 

 where wild strawberries will grow, and a mighty good variety 

 for a lazy grower, as it will come as near as anything planted 

 in taking care of itself.

Surplus Strawberry Plants 



During our day's digging we run over on some varieties 

 that we have dug to fill orders, and as we do not ship 

 anything but fresh-dug stock, carrying no plants over 

 from one day to the next, we use these plants to fill Sur- 

 plus Plant Orders. Customers who are not particular 

 about varieties will find these plants a real bargain, as 

 every plant is strictly fresh-dug, labeled, and true to 

 name. Please do not ask for any particular variety when 

 ordering these plants. With the price we are offering 

 them at, it would be impossible to comply with this re- 

 quest. 



1000 to 4000 Plants $2.75 per 1000 



5000 or more $2.50 per 1000
