Two New Varieties 



There is a continuous effort being made by the USDA and cooperating institutions to develop better 

 disease resistant varieties for you, the small gardener and commercial grower alike. Rayner Brothers is 

 pleased to introduce for the first time two new varieties that are the results of these efforts. Now you can 

 have two new varieties that have some "built in" disease resistance as well as good eating qualities. 

 The supply is limited this year, so be sure to order early. 



Darrow 



After you grow it, you will agree that Darrow will soon become one of the leading early varieties. The 

 flavor is excellent, and the uniform deep red color inside and out makes Darrow a good berry for freez- 

 ing as well as fresh eating. The firmness and color will make Darrow a favorite with the "Pick Your 

 Own" operator and commercial grower alike, and that "eat-'m-right-out-of-the-patch" flavor will 

 certainly please the home gardener. 



Darrow is resistant to five races of red stele root rot, has intermediate resistance to verticillium wilt, 

 and is moderately resistant to leaf spot, leaf scorch and mildew. Darrow produces a moderate number 

 of runners, but has been very productive in narrow matted beds in areas tested in the northeastern 

 part of the country. 



You will certainly want to include Darrow in your planting this year. Be sure to order early, the 

 supply is limited. 



25 Plants $4.90; 50 for $7.35; 100 for $11.00; 1,000 for $49.00 



Delite 



Delite is a very late variety that is ideal for "Pick Your Own" operators who want to extend the pick- 

 ing season. Plants of Delite are very vigorous and make runners freely. Delite has been tested in the 

 northeast and south-central states. It performed best in southern Illinois, Indiana, Maryland and 

 Missouri. Because it has resistance to five races of red stele root rot and verticillium wilt, we recommend 

 Delite for growers who have these diseases present and want to extend the picking season. 



Delite produces large, glossy, bright red berries that have good flavor, aroma, and dessert qualities. 

 If you want a good disease resistant late variety, you will be delighted with Delite. Since the supply is 

 limited on this new variety, order early. 



25 Plants for $4.80; 50 for $7.20; 100 for $10.80; 1,000 for $48.00

Everbearers 



Everbearing strawberries unlike other 

 varieties continue to bloom and produce fruit 

 continuously from early spring until late fall. 

 While everbearers are more difficult to grow, 

 they will reward you with the delicious flavor 

 of "out of season" berries. 



Ozark Beauty and Superfection have 

 proven to be the better everbearing varieties. 

 Remove the first set of blossoms after plant- 

 ing. Allow the plants to fruit from then on. 

 Because of the limited supply, we must limit 

 each customer to 25 plants.
