Home -Grown Strawberries the Best 



The flavor and aroma of home-grown berries always seems to surpass that of berries obtained 

 in the market. The market grower wants first of all a berry of firmness that will stand shipping 

 conditions without losing its appearance of freshness. Then, too, it must be attractive in appear- 

 ance, of good color, large in size and symmetrical in form. For home consumption, flavor and 

 aroma take first importance, as firmness and appearance are not as necessary factors. 



We have endeavored throughout the catalog to describe as clearly as possible the berries 

 listed, and we have emphasized the particular uses for which the various sorts are best adapted. 

 Quite often the best market berries are also fine for the home garden and, of course, such ber- 

 ries are of exceptional value. 



You will find that the pot-grown plants come to you ready to take hold promptly, grow and 

 bloom, and we are sure that you will experience immeasurable delight in growing and consuming 

 Strawberries from your home garden. 



EARLY JERSEY GIANT 



Without question the earliest fruiting variety, 

 combining size, attractive color and superb fla- 

 vor in an extraordinary degree. It is the largest 

 of all early varieties, regardless of class. The very 

 large, brilliant scarlet-crimson berries are of 

 simply delicious flavor. So rich is their aroma 

 that a fair-sized dish of ripe berries will perfume 

 a room. The beautiful berries are of conical 

 form, with a pointed tip. Plants are strong grow- 

 ers and heavy yielders. Strong, prolific growers, 

 pot-grown, dozen, ^1.25; 100, ^8.00. 



Edmund Wilson — A giant mid-season berry. 

 Dark color, juicy, fine flavored and of highest 

 quahty. Pot-grown, dozen, ^1.50; 100, ^10.00. 



John H. Cook — A medium early va- 

 riety of fine appearance, flavor and 

 keeping qualities. Pot-grown, dozen, 

 ^1.50; 100, ^10.00. 



VAN FLEET HYBRIDS 



Three Super Selected Strawberries 



The three Strawberries ofl-ered on this page 

 are developments of the late Dr. Van Fleet, 

 whose remarkable achievements in hybridizing 

 are known throughout the world. During his 

 lifetime of experimental work he produced thou- 

 sands of new Hybrid Strawberries, using not only 

 the better American varieties, but also the finest 

 European sorts for parent plants. In these three 

 Strawberries we off^er all of the finest charac- 

 teristics of Strawberries that have been developed. 

 Their strong constitution, prolificacy, appear- 

 ance, exceptional high quality and marvelous 

 aroma place these berries in the forefront.
