Other Late and Very Late Varieties 
We have this year the finest stock of 
Aroma plants that we have ever grown. 
Growers who like this fine old shipping 
berry are urged to get some of this stock. 
Aroma normally makes plenty of plants for 
a good fruiting bed. The plants are very 
productive. The fruit is light in color with 
a bright green cap. The berries are very 
firm and very attractive in the package. 
Aroma is one of the best sellers of all the 
shipping berries, largely because it arrives 
in market in such fine condition. Although 
primarily a shipping berry Aroma sells well 
when grown for local markets. Price list,

New York 
This is the sweetest 
strawberry grown. 
The plant is a vigor- 
ous grower, producing a moderate number of large, 
healthy plants. The berries are medium to large in 
size, dark red in color, but only moderately firm in 
texture. New York is a home garden berry. It is 
the only strawberry we know of that is sweet before 
it gets red. We have many calls for New York 
from those whose health does not premit them to 
eat berries which are in any way tart or acid in 
quality. Price list, page 35. 
As a fancy late shipping berry Lupton 
has done well for many growers. It usually 
makes plants freely and is being grown in 
place of Chesapeake where that variety 
fails to make sufficient plants. Lupton 
berries are produced in great abundance. 
They average very large in size and bright, 
attractive red in color. They are as firm as 
Chesapeake, standing shipment well enough 
to go into market in fine condition. Lupton 
berries are rather tart and very dry in 
texture, but this has not seemed to affect 
their sale on wholesale markets. This vari- 
ety needs liberal fertilization. Generally an 
application of nitrogen fertilizer in late 
summer would pay with Lupton. It is 
grown largely in New Jersey; also Dela- 
ware, Maryland, and Pennsylvania and 
other Eastern States where it has been a 
profitable late variety. Lupton is also sold 
as Town King although if bought under 
that name the plants usually cost more.

A late variety of unusually high quality which is 
especially adapted to Northern states. When 
grown in the South the foliage is inclined to have 
leaf spot. This is not serious in the north where it 
produces heavy crops of large berries. They are 
bright red in color and although somewhat irregular 
in shape they make a nice appearance in the package. 
For the home garden or on local markets where 
quality is an important factor, Wm. Belt should be 
grown. We have some fine plants for our customers 
this year. Price list, page 35.

G ib SOIl (Parsons Beauty) 
We have some nice plants of these fine old va- 
rieties for those who know and want them. Price 
list, page 35. 
A fancy late shipping berry, large, solid, hand- 
some, moderately productive. Needs liberal fertili- 
zation. Berries often sell with Chesapeake. Makes 
plants freely but needs springy land for big crops. 
Gandy is an old favorite which many growers refuse 
to give up. Where it does well it is a real profit 
maker. We recommend limiting Gandy plants 
in the row to four to six plants per square foot and 
fertilizing in late summer. Gandy needs moist con- 
ditions for best results anywhere and with this 
treatment on moist soil or under irrigation Gandy 
would probably surprise even those who know it is 
a fine old berry. Growers who want to extend their 
season very late will probably find Gandy the best 
of all varieties for that purpose. We have a nice 
lot of plants. Price list, page 35. 
O .,,^ The latest berry we have. Berries 
i C III average large in size, fairly good 
quality and nice appearance. They 
often sell well because they come after other fancy 
late berries are past their prime. Price list, page 35. 
P I After having grown this variety for 
wdli several years, we have concluded 
that it is exactly the same as Gandy. 
Our stock of Pearl came from Michigan growers 
who praised the variety very highly. The same de- 
scription applies as for Gandy and we will be glad 
to supply growers who want this fine late variety 
either as Gandy or as Pearl. Price list, page 35.
