Herbert 



SWEET 



VERY HARDY 



HERBERT 



Herbert is very different in appearance from most blueberries since its 

 fruit has a shiny black luster and a flattened shape. These extra large 

 berries ripen late in the season in loose clusters and have very good 

 quality. Bushes are vigorous and produce heavy crops. Of much im- 

 portance is the winter hardiness which permits Herbert to be grown 

 in most of the northern states. It is a good variety for home gardeners 

 since it combines winter hardiness, large berry size, good production, 

 and fine quality. Ripens about a week before Coville.

My 34 blueberry and 25 strawberry plants got to me in fine shape. 

 You sure have got some good packers. They take time to see that it is 

 packed right.

Coville 



GOOD FOR FREEZING AND JELLY 



This very late-ripening variety greatly prolongs the blueberry season. 

 Under our conditions we begin to pick Earliblue about June 10 and 

 Coville in early July. Berries are large and very attractive and continue 

 to ripen for several weeks. The fruit hangs on and does not have to be 

 picked as soon as it turns blue. Coville actually develops better flavor 

 J if allowed to stay on the bush after it first turns blue.
