REDGLOW 



America/} 

 Beauty 



Redglow, a cross of Fairland 

 and Tennessee Shipper, was re- 

 leased by the U.S.D.A. in 1956. After 

 watching it for several years as an 

 unnamed selection we were im- 

 pressed by the beauty of the berries so 

 much that we wanted the authorities to 

 name it "Miss America" or "American 

 Beauty." However, the name Redglow suits 

 it very well. 



The berries are a beautiful shiny red ^ 

 which makes them so attractive they usually \ 

 bring top prices on the market. The berries are 

 firm enough to carry to market in good condition 

 and good enough in quality to bring buyers back. 



Redglow seems to be slowly increasing in popu- 

 larity, with good results being received by a few 

 growers in Delaware, V/isconsin, Ohio and Michigan. 



Captan is being used for fruit rot control and also 

 for leaf spot in some or all of these areas. Unfortunately 

 Redglow has been more susceptible to leaf spot than many 

 of the newer varieties. 



1960 results on Long Island and central New Jersey in 

 regard to high yields are generally holding up. Redglow is not 



considered highly productive and is not a heavy producer of plants. It makes an 

 adequate growth of strong robust plants which usually are not crowded on the row. 

 Part of the secret of its higher than apparent production probably lies in the fact 

 that every berry reaches a good marketable size. 



Redglow is resistant to the most common strain of red stele, the same as Sparkle. 

 Generally speaking Redglow is adapted to the middle states and is suggested for 

 trial from Virginia to Pennsylvania and even farther north. 



Redglow starts ripening only a day or two after the very earliest. The beautiful 

 berries of this variety should be a good way to start the berry season. Price list

SENATOR DUNLAP 



Redglow — Big, Beautiful Berries 

 Bring Buyers Back 



A fine old variety that has been grown in 

 the middle and northern states for many 

 years. It is an extremely vigorous grower, 

 making lots of plants which are very produc- 

 tive. Berries are medium in size, a bright 

 rich red clear through and of good quality. 

 One of the best for canning. The hardiness 



of the Dunlap plant makes the variety a 

 favorite where the cold winters injure the 

 weaker kinds. Canada, Maine, Iowa and 

 Minnesota are among the places where Dun- 

 lap is appreciated. We have a limited number 

 of good Dunlap plants this season. Price list
