HENRY A. DREER. PHILADELPHIA —STRAWBERRY PLANTS 



WARREN. 



(Mid-season to Late, Perfect.) 



This new berry hails from Auburndale, Mass., and originated 

 with Mr. S. H. Warren, the veteran New England grower of 

 fancy berries, who being convinced that this was the finest of all 

 his introductions, bestowed his own name on it. 



One of our most extensive growers of strawberries tells us : 

 " During the summer of 1912 it was my good fortune to see the 

 Warren in fruit on Mr. Warren's grounds, and the splendid 

 crop of large, lucious, highly colored uniform shaped berries 

 was an inspiration to anyone interested in berry growing." 



We recommend this new fancy berry for extensive trial, and 

 we feel convinced that you will be pleased with the results. 7-i 

 cts. per doz.; |5.00 per 100; $40.00 per 1000. 



Autumn-Fbuiting Strawberries 



IVILDWOOD. 



(Extra E^rly, Perfect.) - 



Wildwood is a berry that will delight every amateur. In our 

 trial grounds it is the earliest to ripen by several days. Berries 

 of large size, which ripen all over. These are held well above 

 the plants on stout stiff stems and have the aroma and flavor of 

 the wild strawberry. We cannot recommend this berry too 

 highly for home use. 75 cts. per doz.; $5.00 per 100; .?40.00 

 per 1000. 



WII.I.IAM BELT. 



(Mid-season to Late, Perfect. ) 



For vigorous growth, great productiveness, size, beauty and 

 fine quality one of the very best. It is grown by the acre for 

 fancy fruit, and is generally mentioned in connection with the 

 Marshall. The first berry to ripen on each fruit stalk, under 

 high culture, is apt to be cockscombed; all others are of 

 regular form. It is of bright glossy red, the ideal color for a 

 strawberry. 75 cts. per doz. ; $5.00 per 100; $4000 per 1000. 



Autumn-Fruiting^ or 

 Everbearing Straw^berries. 



Fall bearing Strawberries of European origin have liltle value 

 for planting in our trying climate. The two varieties offered 

 below are of American origin, and under ordinary conditions 

 produce their main crop of fruit at the same lime as other varie- 

 ties and keep on l)earing until frost. The proper plan is to cut 

 off all buds as they appear until late in July, and thus conserve 

 the strength of the plants for the fall crop. Treated in this 

 way an abundant crop of berries may be looked for during 

 September and October, or if the disbudding of part of the 

 plants is discontinued late in June an almost continuous crop of 

 this luscious fruit may be secured throughout the growing sea- 

 son. Good cultivation is essential to bring about the best re- 

 sults, a liberal mulching during the summer is beneficial and 

 the plants should not be allowed to suffer for lack of water at 

 any time. 



Progressive. The strongest growing and most prolific fruit- 

 ing of the two varieties, berries of fair size and produced in 

 great abundance; they are of an attractive deep, glossy crim- 

 son color and of good flavor. 



Superb. Very free fruiting and for size of berries, handsome 

 appearance and quality it is at the head of this type, sur- 

 passing in this respect some of the June fruiting varieties. 

 Price. Either of the Everbe.Tring varieties, 7-5 cts. per 

 doz.; $5.00 per 100; $40.00 per 1000.
