Beautiful foliage, good berries 
REDSTAR, thanks to its virus free heritage, produces healthy, beautiful 
foliage on vigorous plants. The lateness of the REDSTAR season makes 
ample moisture a major requirement — while lateness in blooming prevents 
late frost kills, thereby extending the season for you as a grower. REDSTAR 
berries are large, medium firm, tart but very good in flavor and quality, and 
bright red in color. REDSTAR is resistant to leaf spot and scorch and is 
tolerant to virus but is not resistant to Red Stele and we would not advise 
setting REDSTAR in your land if you have any reason to believe Red Stele 
may be present. For the home gardener in the North who wishes to extend 
his berry season, we say try REDSTAR. 
Our plants will produce for you. 
AMBROSIA 
Good and late 
AMBROSIA had the reputation of being just about the best real late variety 
for a number of years. Then, along came virus free strains of the more popu- 
lar Redstar about 1956 and AMBROSIA has taken a back seat since that time. 
However, for a good late variety, producing heavy crops of large, attractive, 
light colored berries that sell well, we recommend the AMBROSIA. AMBRO- 
SIA makes a strong, vigorous growth, although somewhat susceptible to leaf 
spot. 
I am ordering more strawberry plants. The 300 Redstar plants I bought of you last year sure 
are a wonderful berry. I set them out the first of June, by July they were bearing berries. 
From the 300 plants, we picked a quart a day for more than 30 days. For flavor, they are 
wonderful and color is beautiful, and best of all, a good producer.
