Catskill berries from Allen plants 
POCAHONTAS 
Wide adaptability for good yields 
POCAHONTAS has been a sales leader from the upper South through the 
Midwest for several years. This is partly due to wide adaptability to climate 
and soil. Growth and vigor of plant production makes it an easy variety to 
grow. When you add to this feature, excellent yields of large, firm, bright red 
and rather tart berries that ship or freeze well, then you will begin to realize 
why POCAHONTAS is still at the top. 
Old but still good 
BIG JOE is one of our oldest varieties, not virus free but a vigorous grower 
anyway. Plants are moderately productive and the berries average large in 
size. Berries are fairly firm, and a bright red color with an attractive green 
cap that makes them very showy and easy to sell. BIG JOE is a fairly good 
shipper. It is somewhat susceptible to late frosts so selection of frosty sites 
should be avoided. Generally best results have been obtained in the middle 
states. If you know and like BIG JOE we have beautiful plants for you. 
We received the 100 Pocahontas plants Feb. 10th. They were the best I have ever received 
from any nursery. The tops were so green and they had the best roots. I am ordering 100 of 
your Redstar piants for Jate berries. I am proud of your plants. Nell Hamm, Rombauer, Mo.
