OUTSTANDING FOR FLAVOR AND BEAUTY 



REDGLOW is our nomination for the best combination of 

 beauty, flavor, and quality in a strawberry. It is so delicious 

 that you and your customers will know you have found the 

 variety that has all that can be desired in this respect. In 

 addition, this fine early variety has resistance to the red stele 

 disease and sufficient hardiness to withstand northern winters. 

 For home gardens Redglow is a favorite because of its beauty 

 and flavor, and for local sales these same fine features result in 

 "repeat customers." Berry size is large and the outside color is 

 a bright, light red while the inside color is also bright red. 

 It grows well in nearly any reasonably fertile soil and with 

 Rayner's virus-free stock you will obtain the full value. 

 25 Plants $2.80; 50 for $4.35; 100 for $6.45; 1,000 for $28.00.

EARLY COMMERCIAL VARIETY FOR SOUTHERN AREA. VIRUS-FREE 



Earlibelle resulted from the cooperative breeding program of the United States Department of Agri- 

 culture and the North Carolina Agricultural Experiment Station. Apparently it will take the place of 

 Dixieland in some areas because its berries are unusually firm and thus excellent for a southern shipping 

 variety. It ripens early and produces fine crops of beautiful, bright, tart berries that "hold their size." 

 Earlibelle is a very vigorous variety and makes lots of plants even in sandy soil or dry weather. Dr. M. M. 

 Parker, of the Virginia Truck Experiment Station, found this variety to be extremely productive, early 

 in ripening, and to produce large, firm berries even when fruiting beds were crowded with plants. We 

 recommend Earlibelle from eastern Maryland into Georgia and other southern areas.

AMAZINGLY PRODUCTIVE 

 DISEASE RESISTANT 



For several years this variety was 

 tested as Md.-U. S. 2601 in many areas 

 of the U. S. A. It was very promising 

 with its high yields of large, firm, very 

 bright, attractive berries that held their 

 fine color long after picking. 



Sunrise has proven to be a real winner 

 in the area from New Jersey to Missouri. 

 Its wonderful aroma has made it a 

 favorite with the home gardener and the 

 commercial grower. It has multiple re- 

 sistance to red stele fungus and is resistant to Verticillium wilt. Sunrise ripens early — about 2 days 

 after Earlidawn — and produces heavy yields of very attractive berries with a fine cap and pink flesh 

 color. The flavor is good for fresh use and preserves but when frozen the color is a bit light for top quality. 



Plants of Sunrise are vigorous and resistant to leaf scorch and powdery mildew but susceptible to leaf 

 spot. This variety is also very drought resistant and may make an excess of runners, which should be 

 removed for maximum yields. We recommend Sunrise as a very promising early, commercial variety 

 especially in soils where red stele and Verticillium wilt occur.
