DISEASE RESISTANT, DROUGHT RESISTANT, UNUSUALLY VIGOROUS 
Year after year Surecrop continues to be the most popular variety we have to offer. Because of its 
vigor and dependable crops of delicious fruit, Surecrop is highly in demand by both the home gardener 
‘and the commercial grower. In a test of seven locations, it averaged 1.37 quarts per plant set. One of 
‘the locations reported 13,600 quarts per acre. Its fruit was rated large in size, firm in texture, and of 
good freezing quality. Similar reports are obtained from so many customers in so many locations that 
|})we can unhesitatingly recommend Surecrop as a truly remarkable strawberry for both home garden and 
commercial production. 
Surecrop has such vigor that it will often grow in poor or dry land where other strawberries fail. Also 
it has multiple resistance to the red stele disease as well as resistance to Verticillium wilt and other 
‘troubles. Because of its vigorous growth it is most important to prevent the fruiting bed from becoming 
too heavily matted and to avoid any spring application of fertilizer. 
This excellent midseason variety has beautiful, firm fruit, with nice flavor and quality. Try Surecrop 
for one of the finest strawberries you have ever seen.

é by BEST FOR 
A FLORIDA 
Because of the lack of cold weather in Florida there is not sufficient winter dormancy for fruit develop- 
- ment in most varieties of strawberry. Florida 90 was developed in Florida for Florida conditions. This 
is the berry that is grown so extensively for shipment to the North. Its berries are large and elongate 
jand have a rich red color and wonderful flavor. Not satisfactory north of Georgia.

Pocahoutae 
EXTRA BIG YIELDS OF HIGH QUALITY BERRIES 
Pocahontas was introduced in 1954 by 
the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture and the 
Virginia Truck Experiment Station and 
_-soon became one of the leading varieties 
for both commercial and home garden 
production. Such popularity is fully 
_ deserved since Pocahontas produces extra 
‘big yields of very large, bright, high 
quality berries that hold their fine ap- 
pearance long after picking. Thus Poca- 
hontas is a favorite with commercial pro- 
ducers where these features are so im- 
portant. The excellent quality and large 
size of Pocahontas, together with fine 
plant vigor, also make it one of the best for 
home gardens. It ripens in midseason and 
yields amazing crops of beautiful berries 
_ that “hold their size” during its long har- 
vest period. The berries have a fine bright 
skin with yellow seeds and a good clear 
red flesh color. Therefore Pocahontas is 
fine for freezing and preserves. From New 
York to Georgia and westward to Texas 
| this variety is still one of the very best and 
we recommend it highly to all who want 
_. big crops of large, fancy berries.
