PETER HENDERSON & CO, NEW YORK.— STRAWBERRY PLANTS. 



ALWAYS 

 the 

 PRIZE 

 TAKER. 



Trie New "flarshall" StiawDerry. 



( Bisexual. Alid season. ) 



The berries are very beautiful and average extraordin- 

 arily large, — often 14 will fill a quart measure. _ As an 

 exhibition berry and for home use it is peerless, — it cap- 

 tures the prize wherever exhibited almost without excep- 

 tion. It is the first of the extra large varieties to ripen, 

 and although of great size the fruit is rarely ever mis- 

 shapen. The color is a rich glossy crimson that everyone 

 admires, — the surface color running well into the flesh, 

 and the quality is far above the average. As to product-

 QUART. 



iveness, it will not yield as large a number 

 of b- rries as some varieties, but when meas- 

 ured in quarts or bushels will be above the 

 average. The plant is faultless, — a strong 

 grower, often standing 20 to 22 inches high, 

 rooting deeply and standing drought well. 

 The large luxuriant foliage is sufficient to 

 protect the blossoms from frost.

STRAWBERRY, 



MRS. CLEVELAND. 



(NEW.) 



(Pistillate. Early.) 



Beautiful, extra large and fine berries of 

 luscious flavor and very uniform shape; 

 color, attractive light scarlet, only mod- 

 erately firm but a splendid home berry. 

 The plant is a very rugged grower, bear- 

 ing abundantly on stout, short fruit 

 stems. It has given excellent satisfaction 

 wherever tried over a wide range of coun- 

 try and yields far in excess of many of 

 the leading older kinds.

MICHEL'S EARLY. 



(Bi-sexual. Extra early.) 



Michel's Early is the earliest variety of 

 strawberry in cultivation that will produce 

 a full crop of berries. On our grounds this 

 late season we picked ripe fruit on May 23d, 

 or ahead of any other sort on the market out 

 of nearly 200 varieties in our trial beds. 



The originator says this is the only Straw- 

 berry entitled to be called "early" being 

 two weeks earlier than other variety. It is a robust, strong grower, rooting deeply, and throw- 

 ing large luxuriant foliage on long stems with never a trace of rust or mildew. It yields boun- 

 tifully, being as productive as the Crescent; berries medium to large, handsome, regular coni- 

 cal form, color light scarlet, flavor exquisite, pronounced by all who have tested it equal to 

 that of the wild strawberry. Michel's early has an added value of being an early and long 

 bloomer, and is a fine sort to pollenize early pistillates. 



PRICE: (Pot gro-wn plants.) 50c. per doz.; $350 per 1 OO. 



Strawberry Plants mailed free at the dozen price, but to the 100 price, if desired by mail, add 50c. for postage.
