NEW RED STELE RESISTANT 

 HIGH QUALITY MIDSEASON VARIETY 



REDCHIEF, introduced in 1968 by USDA and Maryland Agricultural Experiment Station, is a new 

 midseason variety that is suitable for the home gardener as well as the commercial grower. It is ideal 

 for "pick your own" plantings. Redchief's sweet flavor, uniform red color, and firm glossy surface make 

 it a high quality dessert berry. It makes good jam, and its high quality is also maintained when frozen. 

 Being a firm berry it ships very well and holds up during the picking season. 



REDCHIEF is resistant to five strains of red stele, leaf scorch, mildew, and moderately resistant to 

 Verticillium wilt. The plants have medium vigor, make a good matted row, and produce above average 

 yields. Redchief has performed very well from Maryland north to Massachusetts and west to Illinois. 

 There are nothing but good reports from commercial growers in Michigan. With Rayner's virus-free 

 plants, you will be more than pleased with this wonderful new variety. 



25 Plants $3/50; 50 for $5.25; TOO for $7.90; 500 for $22.75; 1,000 for $35.00

CAROLINA 

 FAVORITE 



ALBRITTON is a leading commercial and home garden variety in the coastal region of North Caro- 

 lina and will give good results southward into Georgia and northward into Virginia. In this area it pro- 

 duces berries that are unusually attractive and of fine quality but unfortunately Albritton does not 

 give good results in colder climates. Rayner's virus-free stock of Albritton is especially vigorous and 

 productive. 



25 Plants $2.50; 50 for $3.75; 1,000 for $25.00. See order sheet for postal charges.

^£s^^ _gg ^. ^^^,^t ^ Agricultural Experiment Station. This variety 

 ^^^I C^^^ty^C^t^ ^^^ performed very well in New Jersey and has 

 ' "^ •^•^•^ W w gained wide acceptance by the commercial growers who have tested it. 



We strongly recommend it for New Jersey and feel that it is certainly worth a trial in the neighboring states . 

 In addition to having large glossy red fruit with an attractive cap, Raritan is firm and ships very well. 

 Because of its beauty and excellent shipping qualities, Raritan will soon be the favorite early midseason 

 to midseason variety in New Jersey. The fruit has an excellent eating quality and is recommended for 

 fresh market and table use but not for freezing. Plants run freely and produce a good bed in the matted- 

 row system. The demand for this excellent variety is expected to be heavy, so order early to insure get- 

 ting your plants. !
