HENRY A. DREER,. PHILADELPHIA—STRAW BERRY PLANTS 3 
Climax. Early, Perfect. 
A grand variety which has become popular with the most 
critical growers in the East. The plant is a most vigorous and 
healthy grower, enormously productive, of good sized, finely 
flavored perfectly formed berries, ripening extremely early. 
60 cts. per doz.; $4.00 per 100; $30.00 per 1000. 
Clyde. Early to Mid-Season, Perfect. 
A strong-growing, perfect blooming, healthy plant, with light 
green foliage. Everywhere tested, it proves to be exceedingly 
productive of large, globular, perfectly formed, light scarlet 
berries of fine quality. Always inclined to overbear. Some 
plants have more fruit stalks than leaf stalks. A light applica- 
tion of nitrate of soda in early spring, before fruiting, or a top- 
dressing of stable manure in winter, will stimulate greater foliage 
growth, and so help the fruiting of this remarkable variety. 
There are but few strawberries that succeed as well over so wide 
a range of country as Clyde. No family collection can be com- 
plete without it. 50 cts. per doz.; $3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 
1000. 
Commonwealth. Late, Perfect. 
A Massachusetts berry which in a cool, heavy, rich soil bears 
immense crops of large firm berries rivaling the Marshall for 
quality. An ideal berry where high cultivation can be given. 
60 cts. per doz.; $4.00 per 100; $35.00 per 1000. 
‘ Early Ozark. Early, Perfect. 
A wonderful new early berry over which many commercial 
growers have become very enthusiastic on account of its large 
size which makes it a most desirable addition to the early ripen- 
Ing varieties. | We are pleased to recommend Early Ozark for 
trial. 75 cts. per doz.; $5.00 per 100; $40.00 per 1000. 
First Quality. Late, Perfect. 
A promising new very late variety of which one of the prom- 
inent growers says, comparing it with Gandy or Brandywine: 
“It will produce double the quantity of berries that can be pro- 
duced from either of these two popular sorts; these are of uni- 
form !arge size and good shape and of a most pleasing flavor. 
A berry that should find favor with the amateur who is looking 
for a fancy berry.’’ $1.00 per dozen, $6.00 per 100.
