POCAHONTAS 



W Powerhouse for Growth and Production 



Beautiful Pocahontas plants 

 like these will please you. 



Pocahontas is an amazing berry. Its brilliant performance during the last few- 

 years has caused it to jump in popularity so that with us it leads our sales on all 

 varieties except Catskill. This is largely due to the fact that Pocahontas does well 

 over a wide area which extends from North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky north 

 into Canada and from the Atlantic Ocean to the Rocky Mountains — everywhere 

 except the far south and the far west. 



The outstanding achievement of Pocahontas is due to its excellence 



m so 



many ways: 



One of the most vigorous in plant growth. 



Productivity equalling Catskill, Sparkle and the other great producers. 



Large average size of berries, together with the bright red attractive color and 



showiness. 



Firmness good enough to make an excellent shipper. 



Growing popularity as a processing berry. 



Its pre-eminence as a berry to set in late summer (where plants are available) for a 



partial crop the following spring. 

 7. Wide adaptability and (repeating) its great productiveness. 



Outstanding yields of Pocahontas from official plantings have been received from 

 Virginia, Kansas, Kentucky, New York, Ohio and other states. Comments about 

 Pocahontas from individual growers follow: 



Howard Moon, Jackson Co., Michigan: "We 

 like Pocahontas very much. In 1959 we had 

 lovely berries when no one else around had any 

 due to the dry weather." 



Frank Hunt, Cuyahoga Co., Ohio." My Poca- 

 hontas, Catskill and Surecrop are the talk of the 

 neighborhood. They certainly are all that you 

 claim they are."

M. J. Coomer, Lee Co., Virginia. "Pocahontas 

 is the best variety I have ever grown. Plants 

 are vigorous and berries are large and uniform." 



Andy Hatfield, Ritchie Co., W. Va., "Last 

 year we had 220 quarts of berries from 200 

 Pocahontas plants. It is the best yielder we've 

 ever raised besides being of good quality."
