The good grower 



The SUNRISE variety has proven itself to growers on the watch for an early 

 ripener. SUNRISE is well adapted to the mid-Atlantic states. SUNRISE plants are 

 very vigorous, making runners freely. Resistance to verticillium wilt, leaf scorch, 

 mildew, and triple resistance to red stele are all built-in assets with SUNRISE. 

 A special feature of SUNRISE is its ability to grow and produce under dry 

 conditions. 



SUNRISE berries are glossy, bright red outside, with firm, light pink flesh. 

 They are of fine dessert quality. Have you looked at the picture of SUNRISE on 

 facing page? This will show you what you can do with a setting of SUNRISE 

 this season. Order now. 



As you know, I took Sunrise last year for a very late planting when there was 

 little else available. In spite of being planted in mid-June, they did quite well 

 despite the eternal rain and a short period of very hot weather just after they 

 were planted. The 200 ordered this year are for filling in and making up where a 

 few died, but very few considering.

Of the three kinds of plants we bought from you, Sunrise topped them all! In 

 size, taste, freezing and selling, even the second year they did very good. So, am 

 ordering more Sunrise to start a new patch for next year.

Terrific for the Table 



FAIRFAX continues to get our vote as one of the best for eating. Deep red 

 berries are medium size, covered by deeper red skins. They are mildly sub-acid 

 and this helps make them of excellent eating quality. FAIRFAX berries are 

 delightful to pick and eat but are not good shippers as quick picking and 

 handling are necessary to prevent darkening. 



FAIRFAX plants are not over-active in runner production but are adequate 

 on this score. Foliage has good resistance to leaf spots and scorch. 



A little tip: Plants of FAIRFAX are especially productive when late season 

 runners are picked off. 



Take a look at the beautiful Fairfax berries on facing page — and order now 

 to reserve your plants. 



Be/ore I close, a word about Fairfax. I don't think you do them justice. They're 

 the best berries I have ever seen' except sometimes for shape — and the flavor 

 is just wonderful. We picked one last summer that measured 8 inches around. 

 I'm surprised they are not rated a good freezer — they just couldn't be any 

 better.
