Time of Shipment. Our pot-grown Strawberry Plants are usually ready for shipment the latter part of July or early August, 

 and can be supplied as late as October. It is better, however, to secure the plants in August or September, as earlier plantings develop 

 larger and more vigorous plants and produce a greater crop of fruit next year. 



We forward by express, at the purchaser's expense. The plants are packed compactly, and as light as possible. We make no charge 

 for boxes or packing. If shipment by Parcel Post is desired, add 10 per cent, to price of plants to cover mst of spe< ial packing and postage. 



Gandy's Prize 



BIG JOE 



(Mid-season, Perfect) 



This variety is highly recommended by reliable growers, and 

 our own experience with it justifies us in endorsing all that has 

 been said in its favor. The plant is unusually vigorous, with a mass 

 of large, healthy foliage; the fruit is large, of great substance. 

 exquisite flavor and produced freely on strong stems held well 

 above the ground. We do not know any variety that promises to 

 give more general satisfaction. $1.00 per doz.; S7.00 per 100; 

 $60.00 per 1000. 



BRANDYWINE 



(Mid-season to Late, Perfect) 



All growers are unanimous in their praise of this magnificent 

 berry, and it is considered one of the finest mid-season to late-jruit- 

 i;;g sorts. We do not know that it has a single defect, plants of 

 extra strong constitution and growth doing well everywhere. The 

 fruit is extra large, heart-shaped, color bright, rich red, and the 

 flavor leaves nothing to be desired. A grand variety for preserving, 

 retaining its flavor in a wonderful degree when canned. It always 

 produces satisfactory crops, and whether grown for market or home 

 consumption, will always be found in the front rank of high-grade 

 berries. $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100; $60.00 per 1000. 



CHESAPEAKE 



(Late, Perfect) 



A most reliable berry, which is giving perfect satisfaction in all 

 parts of the country, both in the home garden as well as with 

 market growers, many of the latter using it for their main crop. 

 It is not a variety that sets an immense quantity of fruit, but 

 every blossom makes a berry, every berry being well developed 

 and strictly fancy, of good color without any green tips and of the 

 highest quality. A berry that we can recommend for all soils and 

 conditions. $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100; $60.00 per 1000.

EARLY JERSEY GIANT 



Early. Perfect) 



This has been well called "The early Strawberry without a 

 fault," it is one of Dr. Van fleet's hybrids, the result of crossing 

 some of the finest European varieties with the best American 

 sorts, resulting in a variety which ripens witli the earliest. 

 Berries very large, brilliant, scarlet crimson, conical, with pointed 

 tip, colors all over at once, has a delightful aroma and mild wild 

 strawberry llavor. The plant is a strong grower and heavy 

 yielder. $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100; $60.00 per 1000. 



GANDY'S PRIZE 



ll-ate. Perfect) 



The standard late variety, which has held its own for many 

 I years, and by which every new late berry is judged. It is a strong 

 healthy grower, but needs a rich soil for its perfect development. 

 The berries are borne on long, strong stalks, well above the ground, 

 a variety that is hard to beat. $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100; 

 $60.00 per 1000. 



GLEN MARY 



(Mid-season to Late, Imperfectly Bi-sexual) 



In the Middle and Northern States, where Glen Mary is at its 

 best, probably no variety of Strawberry will produce more quarts 

 per acre. The berries are large, firm enough to ship, of handsome 

 appearance and good quality. Glen Mary is a strong grower and 

 produces an abundance of foliage. The blossoms are about half 

 perfect, but carry enough pollen for their own fruit. However, we 

 believe the size and quantity of the berries can be increased by 

 planting with it some strong pollenizer like Big Joe. $1.00 per 

 doz.; $7.00 per 100; $60.00 per 1000. 



LUPTON 



(Late, Perfect) 



This berry has no equal for solidity, and because of its extra- 

 ordinary substance is an ideal berry for preserving. Add to this 

 the fact that it is very prolific, producing lavish quantities of large 

 brilliant red, smooth-surfaced, glossy berries of high flavor, it will 

 be found extremely desirable and valuable. $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 

 per 100; $60.00 per 1000. 



MARSHALL 



(Early to Mid-season, Perfect) 



This is one of the finest berries grown. It is so well and favorably 

 known that it is almost useless to describe it. The plant is large 

 and stocky; a vigorous grower and a good bearer. One of the 

 earliest of the very large varieties, and it usually matures all its 

 fruit. The berry is very large, of regular form, dark, glossy red, 

 very beautiful and of fine quality. It is the great berry in New 

 England, and no grower can afford to leave out the Marshall. 

 $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100; $60.00 per 1000
