MISSIONARY 
The good grower 
MISSIONARY is a parent of many major varieties and while Florida 90 has 
forged ahead as top grower in Florida, we still have growers asking for the 
dependable MISSIONARY. It does well on almost all soils and better than 
most on very light soils. 
Berries ripen early, are medium in size, dark red in color, tart in quality 
and attractive in appearance. Like Florida 90, MISSIONARY is adapted to the 
climate of Florida and nearby areas only and will produce fruit even in the 
absence of cold weather. 
PREMIER 
Frost proof — early 
PREMIER (also sold as Howard-17, the original name) is in the parentage of 
many later and better varieties. The frost hardiness of PREMIER, along with 
resistance to leaf spot and scorch, as well as high tolerance to virus diseases, 
made it a leader in sales for years. Its large, bright red, flavorful berries are 
undoubtedly the reason growers still call for PREMIER plants. 
Firm of flesh 
REDCOAT is a very attractive mid-season variety for the North and Canada. 
Berries are glossy, light red, of large medium size. Firm flesh makes it a 
good shipper and our growers tell us it is of good dessert quality and fair for 
processing. 
Resistance to mildew is part of REDCOAT's inheritance but it is susceptible 
to verticillium wilt and leaf spot. 
SENATOR DUNLAP 
The old standby 
For fifty years or more, SENATOR DUNLAP has been an important variety 
to Northern growers. Its hardiness, wide adaptability, fine flavor and color of 
berries produced, kept it at the top of the heap for many years. Newer 
varieties have replaced it in part but SENATOR DUNLAP remains a favorite 
with those who have grown it over the years. Where hardiness, vigor and 
fine flavor are the main requisites, SENATOR DUNLAP will fill the bill! 
Just a note to tell you the 500 Senator Dunlap I ordered Jast year look real good this year. 
I didn't cover them this last winter and even under all the snow they look real good. Your 
plants are extremeiy hardy and arrived in excellent condition.
