HENRY A. DREER, 714 CHESTNUT ST., PHILADELPHIA. 



Bll1)a.o]l« Mid-Season, Pistillate. 



One of the best known berries in tlie Philadelphia markets, 

 many of the most extensive market growers in this vicinity con- 

 sidering it the most profitable market berry, and no mistake will 

 be made in planting it extensively for home use; it is prolific, 

 of good quality and good appearance ; an old favorite. 50 cts. 

 per doz. ; 53.OO per lOO ; $25.00 per lOOO. 



Charles Do'Wlimg. Mid-Season, Perfect. 



A grand old variety for the home garden, a good, free grower, 

 bearing good crops of medium-sized, conical, light red berries 

 of the -most exquisite flavor. Succeeds in all localities. Too 

 soft for a market berry. 50 cts. per doz.; $3.00 per 100 ; | 

 $25.00 per 1000. 



Clyde. Early to Mid-Season, Perfect. 



A strong-growing, perfect-blooming, healthy plant, with light 

 green foliage. Everywhere tested, it proves to be exceedingly 

 productive of large, globular, perfectly formed, light scarlet 

 berries of fine quality. Always inclined to overbear. Some 

 plants have more fruit stalks than leaf stalks. A light applica- 

 tion of nitrate of soda in early spring, before fruiting, or a top- 

 dressing of stable manure in winter, will stimulate greater foliage 

 growth, and so help the fruiting of this remarkable variety. 

 There are but few strawberries that succeed as well over so wide 

 a range of country as Clyde. No family collection can be com- 

 plete without it. 50 cts. per doz.; $3.00 per 100 ; $25.00 per 

 1000. 



£arly May. Extra Early, Perfect. 



A most valuable extra early variety of strong, robust growth, 

 absolutely hardy, and is never injured by late frosts. It bears 

 wonderfully heavy crops of medium-sized berries, having the rich 

 flavor and aroma found only in the wild berry, but its most valu- 

 able feature is its extreme earliness. 50 cts. per doz.; $3.00 per 

 100; $25.00 per 1000. 



Duncan. Early to Late, Perfect. 



A strong, free grower, and a phenomenally heavy bearer 01 

 extra large, always perfectly formed, crimson scarlet, finely 

 flavored fruit, coming into bearing as early as the earliest, and 

 continuing almost as late as the latest sorts. A splendid variety 

 for the private garden where there is only room for one sort. Its 

 handsome appearance, fine flavor, and good shipping qualities 

 have always commanded for it the highest prices in the Phila- 

 delphia market, — selling readily at 25 cts. per quart when good 

 average berries were bringing 8 cts, — and the originator has 

 frequentl)' sold $1400.00 worth of fruit from a single acre ; and 

 as soon as he decided to place the plants on the market he had 

 no trouble in disposing of over 200,000, mostly to neighboring 

 growers, which shows how much they think of the Duncan. 50 

 cts. per doz.; $3.00 per lOO ; $25.00 per lOOO. 



Excelsior. Extra Early, Perfect. 



An extra early that has been recommended from many differ- 

 ent sections not only on account of its extreme earliness, but also 

 on account of its productiveness, one large grower claiming that 

 it will produce four times as many berries as any extra early sort 

 known to him. 60 cts. per doz.; $4.00 per 100 ; $30.00 per 

 1000. 



Gandy's Prize. Late, Perfect. 



A strong, healthy plant, needing rich soil for its perfect devel- 

 opment. One of the best berries for late market. Fruit solid 

 and fit for shipment to distant markets. Berry of fine flavor. 

 The berries are borne upon long, strong stalks well above the 

 ground. No better late berry can be wished for ; a variety that 

 will be hard to beat. 50 cts. per doz.; $3.00 per 100 ; $25.00 

 per 1000.
