VERY LATE VARIETIES 
Large and lovely — ever so productive 
VESPER is the offspring of Utah Shipper and Jerseybelle and like Jerseybelle, 
it is a very productive variety. VESPER plants are vigorous and make runners 
well. Berries are rich red and glossy, large in size, with lovely cap of green. 
VESPER ripens later than Jerseybelle and is an excellent variety to extend 
the season for Northern growers. VESPER is susceptible to Verticillium Wilt 
and leaf disease and care must be taken to guard against attack. We consider 
VESPER a fine variety for the Northern states but cannot recommend it for 
growing south of New Jersey since it tends to become too soft in the South.

Beautiful foliage, good berries 
REDSTAR, thanks to its virus free heritage, produces healthy, beautiful 
foliage on vigorous plants. The lateness of the REDSTAR season makes 
ample moisture a major requirement — while lateness in blooming prevents 
late frost kills, thereby extending the season for you as a grower. REDSTAR 
berries are large, medium firm, tart but very good in flavor and quality, and 
bright red in color. REDSTAR is resistant to leaf spot and scorch and is 
tolerant to virus but is not resistant to Red Stele and we would not advise 
setting REDSTAR in your land if you have any reason to believe Red Stele 
may be present. For the home gardener in the North who wishes to extend 
his berry season, we say try REDSTAR.
