MID SEASON VARIETIES 
REDCHIEF/ NEW 
New and good 
REDCHIEF has just been released to nurserymen by the USDA. It was 
tested as MD-US 3068, originating from a cross of NC 1768 and Surecrop. 
Inherent in its parentage from Surecrop is the red stele resistance that has 
been such an important factor in the development of this new and exciting 
variety. REDCHIEF is a late midseason variety — ripening several days later 
than Surecrop. The red stele resistance of Redchief, as well as resistance to 
verticillium wilt, means a degree of vigor in this variety similar to Surecrop. 
It will grow well for you even under adverse conditions. We heartily recom- 
mend the new and good Redchief for fine crops of beautiful berries. 
Berries of REDCHIEF are medium to large, deep red, firm and glossy. The 
flavor is sweet and holds well in freezing. Growers using the pick-your-own 
method of marketing will find REDCHIEF pleasing to their customers. 
Still the king 
Other varieties may advance or wane in popularity but CATSKILL remains 
"The King" with many growers. CATSKILL's adaptability extends from 
North Carolina to all Northern states. CATSKILL plants are vigorous, ever so 
productive, hardy, and resistant to leaf trouble and Verticillium Wilt. CATS- 
KILL berries are large, attractive, fine quality, and loaded with Vitamin C. 
They are suitable for freezing and do well on local markets. Need we say 
more? 
I bought 300 Catskill plants from you a year ago. We had a wonderful crop of 
berries, some as large as silver dollars and all we could eat. I set these plants out in a 
snowstorm and everyone thought we were foolish but we never lost a plant. They really 
Jove this climate. People came to see my berries, they were so big! We were thrilled 
with the plants.
