Dreer’s Collections of Superb Strawberries 
All Pot-Grown Plants which will Produce a FULL CROP of Berries next June. 
Notwithstanding the care we take in keeping our list down so as to include only varieties of sterling merit, the amateur finds 
difficulty in making a selection that will produce a bountiful supply of the finest fruit from the beginning to the end of the season. 
It is for such that we offer this collection, made up of Marshall and Clyde for early, Nick Ohmer and Sharpless for mid- 
season, Brandywine and Gandy’s Prize for late, all of them sorts which adapt themselves to the most varied conditions of soil 
and climate and which, in our judgment, combine in the highest degree all the qualities which high-grade strawberries should have.

New Fall Bearing Strawberries 
Everbearing or Fall Bearing Strawberries of European, principally of French origin, have frequently been offered during the 
past fifteen years, and while we have seen splendid crops of fruit on many of these in specially favored localities during the late 
Summer and Fall months, none of these varieties have been of any value for general planting in our trying climate. The two 
varieties now offered are of American origin and have been tried in many parts of the United States with most gratifying results, 
splendid crops of excellent berries having been gathered from September to November. We recommend both sorts for trial. 
Americus. Fruit light red, heart shaped, of fine texture and good quality; about one-half the size of the Brandywine; fruit 
stems stout, holding fruit well off the ground. 
Superb. This is the strongest grower of the two and probably the most desirable one. The berries are very large, glossy and 
attractive, as regular in shape as though turned on a lathe. 
Price for either variety, 25 cts. each; $2.50 per dozen; $20.00 per 100,
