General List of Strawberries, 



BRANDYWINE. A superb variety, of gen- 

 eral adaptability and one of the most popular. 



The berries are large, roundish-conical, regular, 

 bright glossy crimson, firm and of good flavor. 

 Plant a fine grower, vigorous and productive. For 

 best results it should be grown on strong, rich soil 

 as is the case with all large berries. Midseason. 

 Doz., 25c. ; 100, 50c. ; 1000, S?3.00. 



BUBACH (No. 5) . P. For a near-by market 

 this is about as profitable a variety as I know of, 

 being both very large and very productive. It is 

 a popular sort and I always sell out my plants of 

 it before the end of the season. The berries are 

 bright crimson, of fairly good quality, rather soft 

 but firm enough for local markets. Plant strong 

 and vigorous, exceedingly productive. Those 

 who desire an abundance of large, handsome ber- 

 ries, without regard to extra fine quality and firm- 

 ness of flesh will be pleased with it. Doz., 25c. ; 

 100, oOc. ; 1000, S:].o0. 



DOLLAR JUNIOR. A remarkable straw- 

 berry, possessing great beauty and merit and well 



worthy of culture 

 wherever it is not 

 ^^"1^^^ \ M known. It is a 



Mm%, h\mM Californian seed- 



IP} Vi'ff/I liiig of the old 



"kW" W Ii'"/ J^^^^ Dollar straw- 

 J^SI^^^Il^ berry, which I 

 "^v^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ purchased from 



originator 

 many years ago 

 and sent out as a 

 premium with my 

 journal Orchard 

 and Garden. The 

 Dollar proved re- 

 markably s u c - 

 cessf ul, becoming 

 the most popular 

 of all varieties in 

 California. Dol- 

 lar Junior isan im- 

 provement upon 

 the old variety. 

 The berries are large, oblong, glossy, regular and 

 perfect as though moulded in wax, and of fine 

 flavor. The plant is robust and productive but 

 requires a rich soil and thorough culture. Mid- 

 season. Doz., oOc. ; 100, |2.00. 



EXCELSIOR. One of the very best extra 

 early ^-arieties yet introduced for shipment. The 



berries are larger than those of any other very 

 early sort, firm, highly colored but of acid flavor. 

 A cross between the old Wilson's Albany and 

 Hoffman, it partakes of the character of each, 

 with a plant that is more vigorous and healthy 

 than either. It is very productive and succeeds 

 over a large area of country. A splendid shipper 

 and keeper and decidedly profitable. Should be 

 largelj' planted wherever early berries are wanted. 

 Doz., 25c. ; 100, 50c. : 1000, !r2.50. 



GANDY. The ..r.andard late variety, very 

 populr.r and more ^argely planted than any other 



sort. I have been much gratified at its great 

 success which I predicted when I introduced it in 

 1888. Its only defect is a lack of productiveness 

 which may be remedied by good rich soil and a 

 liberal use of fertilizers. The berries are large, 

 obtuse-conical, very uniform in both size and 

 shape, brilliant crimson and remarkably firm ; un- 

 excelled for canning. It grows well, has a strong 

 robust plant and large, clean foliage. More money 

 has been made from the Gandy by fruit growers 

 than any other variety introduced in the past 

 twenty-five years. It is more largely grown to- 

 day than any other strawberry in cultivation. 

 Doz., 25c. ; 100, 50c. ; 1000, $3.50.
