FAIRFAX 
Deserves the silver spoon treatment 
FAIRFAX has just about everything for the grower interested in table fruit. 
FAIRFAX berries are firm, bright red and beautiful, of good size. They con- 
tain the least acid of any of the common varieties, which makes them the 
most deliciously flavorful for desserts. FAIRFAX berries sell best on the 
local market since quick picking and handling are necessary to prevent 
darkening which may result from delays. FAIRFAX is satisfactory in plant 
production but not prolific — although its flowers produce the most pollen of 
any. On the score of eating and selling locally, FAIRFAX can't be beat! 
REDGLOW 
The American beauty 
REDGLOW berries are a beautiful shiny red and so attractive that there are 
no varieties that can top it in beauty and quality. The berries ripen at the 
same time as Midland and are rated very good for freezing. 
Plant growth and runner production under most conditions are quite good. 
REDGLOW is resistant to the most common strain of red stele and is adapted 
to the middle states. Earliness and exceptional beauty bring the top dollar 
for this fine variety. 
Allen's vigorous stock of Midland. 
Vigorous plants 
The SUNRISE variety has great promise for growers on the watch for an early 
ripener — well adapted to the Mid-Atlantic states. SUNRISE performs well in 
runner production, with plants very vigorous. Resistance to verticillium wilt, 
leaf scorch, mildew, and triple resistance to red stele are strong points in 
favor of this fine variety. 
Berries are glossy, bright red, conic shape, with firm light pink flesh. They are 
of good dessert quality but not considered excellent for freezing. 
Thank you for the shipment of strawberry plants which were received today. As always, 
your plants arrived in good condition and are strong, healthy plants. I have always 
been well pleased with the plants which I have purchased from you.
