GIBSON. 



QIBSON (Per.)— Strong grower, and should be given plenty ot room when planting. Foli- 

 age large and healthy a shade darker green than Bubach Hemes as large asBubach or Mar- 

 shall, but regular and uniform in shape, and remains ot good size to the last picking. Its ship- 

 ping and keeping qualities are so superior that it reaches the consumei m perfect condition, 

 firm, brilliant in color and fresh in flavor. As compared with other berries, new and old, the 

 Gibson is the most attractive. Seen on the vines it is a beautiful sight. Every berrj' is like 

 its neighbor bright crimson in color, symmetrical and uniform in shape, a short conical 

 pointed form. It seems to have all the strawberry virtues, and it is a beautifu; picture, the 

 vines heavily^ very heavily loaded with beautiful fruit. It seems enormously productive.- 

 Originator. 



HARGARET— The plant is large and healthy, and so vigorous in growth that it will ma- 

 ture its last berries and continue green and luxuriant while an abundance of strong runners 

 are produced. The foliage is dark green and so clean and healthy looking that it is a pleasure 

 to work among the plants. The blossom is perfect and one of the strongest e\er seen. It 

 commences to ripen soon after the early varieties and bears until nearly an othei> are gone, 

 with a good chance Its berries are nearly all of large size. The fruit isdaik gl(;ssy red and 

 the berries are not inclined to ha\e Avhite tips The largo green calyx adds to its beauty. 

 The flesh is firmer than most large berries, and ot excelleni tJa^or For healthy vigorous 

 growth, productiveness, size, beauty and quality the Margaret is a remarkable variety
