STOKES' STRAWBERRIES 



NEW STRAWBERRIES 



Heritage. ^ seedling Strawberry, originated in Burlington Count}', N. J. Plant is very large, of heavy texture, persistent in propa- 



2 — gation, deep-rooted, free in fruiting; season, midseason to very late. The berry is dark, shining crimson in color to center 



carries an unusually large, heavy green calyx ; very large, tapering and regular, of delicious flavor ; being firm, it is a good shipper. I con- 

 sider this a promising new variety. $i 

 per doz , postpaid ; by express^ per 

 doz., 50 cts. ; per loo, $i .50; per i ,000, $8. 



Great Scott. This is a cross be- 

 — — — tween Bubach and 

 Belmont, — great blood for size, beauty, 

 yield and quality. The plant is perfec- 

 tion itself. The foliage and fruit shine 

 as though varnished, having no blight 

 or rust. The fruit is of a bright scarlet 

 color, turning crimson when verv ripe. 

 Its season is from medium to late. 

 Per doz., 50 cts., postpaid; by express, 

 per doz., 35 cts ; per 50, Si ; per 100, 

 $1.50 ; per 1,000, S7.50. 



~' ar- 

 berry. I be- 

 lieve this to be the best late Straw- 

 berry ever introduced. In size it is 

 uniformly very large and handsome, 

 very richly colored and a delightfully 

 flavored Strawberry for the table. Its 

 healthy, vigorous growth is phenome- 

 nal, sending out its runners until the 

 ground is matted with them, and its 

 great, deep-rooting qualities enable it 

 to produce beautiful berries in a dry 

 season when other varieties are fruit- 

 less from this reason and coming 

 after almost all other sorts are gone, 

 it holds the late market to the grower's 

 great profit. Per doz 40 ( ts., postpaid ; by fx;)rt*ss, per doz., 30 cts ; per io<3. So cts.; per 1,000, $5.; in 5,000 lots at $4 per i.oco,; 10,000 for S30. 

 Oom Paul. T'^® Strawberry, Oom Paul, is a wonder. Stupendous in size and delicious in flavor, nice shape, elegant color, shipping 



' the best. Another strong point in favor of Oom Paul is that the last picking never runs sma" 

 40 cts., postpaid ; by express, per doz. 30 cts.; per 100, 80 cts.; per 1,000, S5.
