ROYALTY OF THE LUTE BERRY FAMILY 

 FOR HOME GARDEN OR COMMERCIAL GROWER 



CHESAPEAKE has long been considered the finest and most 

 desirable late berry for either home garden or commercial 

 grower. However, at times, it was dif- 

 ficult to get a good fruiting row, _and 

 in an effort to correct this we have 

 been selecting our CHESAPEAKE for 

 vigor of growth and good plant pro- , *. 

 duction. For eight years this careful 

 selection has meant good fruiting rows **'% ^ 

 for users of RAYNER'S plants. ' *&k*A 



Set RAYNER'S CHESAPEAKE for 4'1 



SURE SUCCESS. 



Vigorous Plants — Set in rich, well manured soil, CHESA- 

 PEAKE responds well to frequent cultivation. Strong, healthy 

 foliage resists leaf spot and scorch, holding up well during 

 fruiting season. Blooms late, escaping late frosts. 



Very Large Berries — Hold up well in size throughout season 

 because of natural wide spacing of plants. 



Fine Quality — Dark red berries of truly delicious flavor have 

 always made CHESAPEAKE a favorite with home gardener, 

 local market and commercial grower. 



Excellent Shipper — Unexcelled for shipping purposes. Firm berries arrive at market in #erfect condition, con- 

 tinually demanding top prices. 



Heavy Producer— Although CHESAPEAKE sets less fruit than some varieties its ability to size up the entire 

 crop has made it one of the most productive late varieties.

PROBABLY THE BEST FLAVORED BERRY EVER INTRODUCED 



(U.S.D.A. 2119) 



A cross of Chesapeake and 

 Fairfax, these high-flavored par- 

 ents have, in FAIRPEAKE, pro- 

 duced a berry considered by ex- 

 perts to have the best flavor of 

 any variety. Growers everywhere 

 are enthusiastic over its beauti- 

 ful appearance, good size, firm- 

 ness and productiveness. This 

 ideal variety was not offered last 

 year due to the scarcity of plants. 

 This year our supply is limited, 

 so be sure to place your order 

 early. 



Healthy Plants — Very resistant to leaf 

 spot and scorch, producing ample fruit- 

 ing bed. Prefers moist soil as do all late 

 varieties. 



Beautiful Large Berries — Rich red 

 color, glossy skin and dark green cap 

 combine for breath-taking beauty. 



Tops in Flavor — Very sweet with highest dessert quality, better even than Fairfax and Chesapeake. 



Good Producer— Produces well for a late variety, following Catskill to provide a continuous crop of large berries 

 over a long harvest. 



Excellent Shipper — Firm-textured berries enable FAIRPEAKE to arrive at market looking its best.
