HENRY A. DREER, PHILADELPHIA— STRAWBERRY PLANTS 



ci.i:iiAx. 



(Early, Perfect.) 

 A grand variety which is popular with the most critical grow- 

 ers in the East. The plant is a most vigorous and healthy 

 grower, enormously productive, of fair sized, finely flavored 

 perfectly formed berries, ripening extremely early. 60 cts. per 

 doz.; $4.00 per 100; $35.00 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 re- 

 markable variety. 50 cts. per doz.; $3 50 per 100; $30.00 

 per 1000. 



EARI.Y OZARK. 



(Early, Perfect.) 



A wonderful 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 ripening varieties. From our own observations we can 

 recommend this variety highly as an enormous bearer of 

 good sized, uniform round berries of most agreeable flavor 

 and attractive appearance. 50 cts. per doz.; §3.50 per 100; 

 $30.00 per 1000. 



FIRST QUAI.ITY. 



(Late, Perfect.) 

 A splendid comparatively new late variety of which one 

 of the prominent growers says, comparing it with Gandy or 

 Brandywine: "It will produce double the quantity of ber- 

 ries that can be produced from either of these two popular 

 sorts; these are of uniform large size and good shape and of 

 a most pleasing flavor. A berry that finds favor with the 

 amateur who wants a high-class fancy berry." 50 cts. per 

 doz.; $3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000. 



CANDY'S PRIZE. 



(Late, Perfect.) 



This is still the standard late variety, which has held its 

 own for many years and by which every new late berry is 

 judged. It is a strong healthy grower, but needs a rich soil 

 for its perfect development. The berries are borne on long, 

 strong stalks, well above the ground. No better late beiry 

 can be wished for; a variety that is hard to beat. 50 cts. 

 per doz.; $3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000. 



GLEN MARY. 



(Mid-Season to Late, Imperfectly Bi-sexual.) 



Described by a large grower as follows: " I have known 

 it since its first bearing, and firmly believe it deserves the 

 title of 'the berry grower's money maker.' " It makes a 

 very strong plant, but few of them. This reduces the cost 

 of keeping the row in proper shape for fruiting. Its roots 

 are enormous, enabling it to ripen its great crop of monster 

 berries in the dryest season. 50 cts. per doz.; $350 per 

 100; $30.00 per 1000. 



HERITAGE. 



(Very Late, Perfect.) 



A variety that is deservedly gaining great popularity. It orig- 

 inated in New Jersey, and its disseminator, who is a commercial 

 grower of berries, says: " For nearly forty years I have grown 

 strawberries, and having tested hundreds of standard varieties 

 and as many seedlings, feel qualified to assert that with me it is 

 the most productive and most valuable variety I have ever 

 seen." The plant is a vigorous rampant grower and prodigi- 

 ous yielder. Berries uniformly very large, dark shining crim- 

 son, conical, uniform in size and shape and of superior quality 

 and solid texture. 50 cts. per doz.; $3.50 per 100; $30.00 

 per 1000.
