An Offering of Some New Varieties 

 and Some Old Familiar Ones . . . 



LUPTON (Late). This is an excellent late 

 shipping' berry in Chesapeake growing areas 

 (see Chesapeake page). Makes a better fruit- 

 ing bed for some growers than does Chesa- 

 peake. Berries are firm and very similar in 

 appearance, flavor and general qualities to 

 Chesapeake. 



WM. BELT (La'te). Often we receive in- 

 quiries from old strawberry growers who want 

 to know if we have "that good old William 

 Belt". We are continuing to offer an excel- 

 lent strain of this fine old Northern variety. 

 Berries are large, attractive and of unusual 

 flavor. Firm enough for local market. 



AMBROSIA (Very Late). AMBROSIA'S 



firm, large berries are proving increasingly 

 popular with growers of Premier, Catskill, 

 Aberdeen and Pathfinder who are seeking a 

 good late berry. Quality of fruit is good, but 

 slightly tart. Plants make an excellent stand 

 for a late variety and up to this time has 

 shown good frost resistance. 



SENATOR DUNLAP (Midseason). Dunlap 

 is one of the most popular varieties in the 

 Upper Mississippi Valley States of Wisconsin, 

 Michigan, Ohio, Iowa and Kansas. An excel- 

 lent canning variety, it is widely grown for 

 commercial and home garden use. So vigorous 

 that it seems to grow most anywhere, it sets 

 a bumper crop of fine quality, dark red berries. 

 Our Dunlap is from a strain of consistently 

 good producers. 



STARBRIGHT (Midseason). STAR- 

 BRIGHT is a Chesapeake, Fairfax cross that 

 is preferred by many growers in the belt from 

 Virginia to New Jersey and westward to Kan- 

 sas and Iowa. Large berries are of unsur- 

 passed dessert quality and are firm, very good 

 shippers. Big plants are free from leaf spot 

 and scorch. 



GANDY (Very Late). Many growers order 

 GANDY year after year because it is very 

 productive in moist, springj^ soil and blooms 

 extra late, escaping late frosts. Medium large 

 berries, firm, attractive, slightly acid. Good 

 plant maker but requires more fertilizer than 

 most varieties. If GANDY is grown in your 

 area, let us supplj^ your plant needs. 



PEARL (Very Late). This variety is very 

 similar to Gandy, but some growers tell us it 

 proves more vigorous and productive. If you 

 have been growing Gandy, perhaps a trial of 

 PEARL would prove worthwhile. 



PATHFINDER (Midseason). An excellent 

 local market variety highly productive of 

 large, light red berries of good quality and 

 flavor. Very similar to Aberdeen in appear- 

 ance and fruiting, but is considered more vig- 

 orous in light or dry soils. PATHFINDER 

 is recommended from New Jersey, northward. 

 Highly immune to red stele root disease, and 

 a consistenly heavy producer. Very popular 

 with market gardeners who raise strawberries 

 for local market. 



Many growers have a favorite strawberry variety that particularly appeals to their taste 

 or that does unsually well on their land. It is our desire to furnish as many of these varieties 

 as we possibly can. If you are in the market for any of the varieties listed on this page you 

 may be assured you will receive top quality plants. Lack of space necessitates that we limit 

 our descriptions.
