POCAHONTAS 



EXTRA BIG YIELDS OF HIGH QUALITY BERRIES. EXCELLENT 



FOR BOTH COMMERCIAL 

 AND HOME PLANTINGS. 



The features which make Pocahon- 

 tas so outstanding, are its tremendous 

 yield, of large, high-quality berries, and 

 exceptional plant vigor. Pocahontas 

 was released by the U. S. Dept. of 

 Agriculture in 1954 and has rapidly be- 

 come the leading commercial variety 

 in many areas. Likewise, it is one of 

 the very best strawberries for home 

 gardens. In official tests in many states 

 Pocahontas has consistently ranked 

 near the top for production. Of special 

 significance are the many enthusiastic 

 reports from berry growers who find 

 Pocahontas to be the best strawberry 

 they have ever known. From Texas to 

 Georgia and northward to New York 

 and Iowa this is a variety that is sett- 

 ing new records for production and 

 profits. In many areas Pocahontas is 

 an important commercial variety since 

 its firm, large berries can be shipped 

 long distances to market and still maintain their attractive appearance. It is also a real profit 

 maker for local sales. 



Pocahontas ripens in mid-season and produces large berries that "hold their size" for the 

 entire season. They have a bright red, firm skin and a fine red flesh. The flavor is excellent 

 if the berries are allowed to ripen fully before picking. If picked too soon, Pocahontas is rather 

 tart and in the northern states this tartness seems to be more evident than in warmer areas. 

 For preserves and freezing Pocahontas is excellent.

I like Rayner's plants better than any I ever got from anyone else. In 1960 I grot 1,000 of your 

 Surecrop and 1,000 Pocahontas. From them I picked the best crop I ever saw or heard of. Your 

 advice on g-rowing: strawberries has been of great help.

THE OLD-FASHIONED VARIETY WIJH WILD-STRAWBERRY FLAVOR 



Dunlap was named in Illinois in 1890 and has withstood the test of time better than any 

 standard variety. It was a favorite long ago because of its wonderful flavor and excellent 

 quality for fresh use and preserves. Today Senator Dunlap still has these same excellent fea- 

 tures and has also proven to be fine for freezing. The plants are extremely winter hardy and 

 will grow in our coldest states. Thus, it is well liked in Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Dako- 

 ta, South Dakota, and other states having severe winter weather. Dunlap will also grow 

 well in poor soils and in heavy clay so-ils and is very drought resistant. Berries of Senator 

 Dunlap are of medium size and have a rich red color inside and out. For berries that will 

 bring back memories of that delicious wild strawberry flavor try Rayner's registered stock of 

 virus-free Dunlap. Place your order early to be sure of obtaining the desired varieties.
