HARRISON'S NURSERIES, BERLIN, MD. 



AKOMA (Per)— Plant shows no weakness of any kind. Fruit very larg-e, roundish, coni- 

 cal, rarely mis-shapen, g'ossy red, of excellent quality, and produces in abundance. We could 

 not supply the demand for this variety last year, but this year we have a larger stock of them. 



BARTON— Imperfect bloomer. A good standard sort but has been overlooked by some. 

 One of the very best for field crops, a splendid grower and a heavy yielder of large size, good 

 color and highly flavored berries. You can depend on it every time. 



ATLiANTIC (Per)— A large, dark red, highly colored berry, very attractive. In some sec- 

 tions Avhere it is grown under high culture, it sells for fancy prices. It is very tirm, making it 

 an excellent shipper, liequires rich soil. 



HERO (Per.)— George Washington proved him 

 self to be the greatest hero among the American 

 people, even so will this berry prove itself to be the 

 greatest hero among the strawberries. The fruit is<! 

 large, well formed, of dark red color and shows the< 

 color through and through. It is of most excellent; 

 flavor, not only tastes delicious^ 

 while eating but leaves such a- 

 pleasant after-ett'ect that makes; 

 ine feel like Avanting more.< 

 Surely the most fastidious epi-i

Find enclosed check to balance ac- T 



count. Strawberry plants were a little ( 



long on the road, twelve days, but were ( 



fresh and nice. They are all in the [ 



ground and don't think I will lose a( 



plant. Accept thanks for the extras. ( 



A^ D. Muse, f 



curean cannot find any 

 fault whatever with this 

 fruit when placed upon 

 his table. 



This new variety was 

 originated in Arkansas. 

 We have purchased the 

 entire stock and having 

 full control of same, 

 there is no other firm in 

 the United States that 

 has any of these plants 

 to offer, therefore, do 

 not be deceived by un- 

 scrupulous persons who 

 should claim to have 

 this variety. The fruit 

 is solid and will stand 

 long shipment. Season 

 of ripening about May 

 25 th. 



We are offering them 

 at a nominal price, con- 

 sidering the quality and 

 quantity which we have 

 to offer. We have placed 

 the price very low for 

 such a desirable variety, 

 only 100 dozen to be sold, 

 and in order that you 

 may be sure j'-our order 

 will be filled it should be 

 placed at once and the 

 stock Avill be reserved, 

 otherwise you may be 

 too late. Price, 50(;'' each; 

 $1.50 for half dozen: $2.5U 

 per dozen. 



CROCKETT'S EARL,Y— Plant bright green foliage, upright. Fruit rather large, long 

 and pointed and it seems to be rather soft for long shipment. 



M. QTTEEN— On spring set plants on June 1st we find some verj' large green berries but 

 only a few ripe ones, hence it shows to be a late berry of excellent flavor and of good size. 



SAUNDERS (Per)— One of the very best to plant with pistillate varieties, as the pollen of 

 it is very strong. The plant is a healthy grower, very productive, fruit large, conical, slightl.y 

 flattened and often has a depression on one or both sides. It is deep red, and is remarkabl.v 

 glossy. The past season only confirmed our belief stronger in this variety as it was up to its 

 standard in every respect. 



DUFF-This berry comes highly recommended. It claims bj' good authority to be equal 

 to Lady Thompson in size, productiveness and earliness, and greatly superior to it in color and 

 shipping qualities, which of course means firmness. The plant is rich, dark green, without a 

 spot of rust or blemish of any kind. 



E3IPEROR (Per)— Plant large and stout, a health3% vigorous grower and a very heavy 

 bearer. Season medium. Fruit very large, with the fine specimens somewhat seamed or cor- 

 rugated under high cultui'e. Usually the shape is of regular roundish conical form, and the 

 size is large to the end of the season, with a fair chance. The color is dark, rich red and extends 

 well toward the center. The flesh is reasonably firm and the quality good. Its leading charac 

 teristjcs are great productiveness and very large size.
