SURECROP 



THE MOST DEPENDABLE STRAWBERRY 



Virus-Free/ Disease Resistant, 



Drought Resistant, Highly Productive 



Siirecrop was developed by the U. S. Dept. of 

 Agriculture especially for resistance to the red 

 stele disease. It has such high resistance to 

 this trouble tliat it will produce perfect crops 

 where most varieties would be complete fail- 

 ures. In addition Surecrop is resistant to Ver- 

 ticillium wilt, leaf spot, and leaf scorch. Then 

 as an extra bonus Surecrop is one of the most 

 drought resistant of all strawberries. Under ad- 

 most any soil condition Surecrop's unexcelled 

 vigor will produce an abundant crop of wonder- 

 ful fruit. Thus, you can understand why we 

 call it the most dependable of all strawberries. 

 Surecrop ripens in midseason and has large, bright-red berries with a nice cap and bright 

 seeds. The berries are very uniform and have a fine appearance. The flavor is good for fresh 

 use and preserves, likewise, Surecrop is good for freezing. The flesh is quite firm and thus 

 Surecrop will hold up well for shippuig and keep its fine appearance for several days. There- 

 fore this is an excellent commercial variety as well as a fine berry for home gardens. 



From North to South we are receiving reports of the excellent performance of this amaz- 

 mg variety. Official tests in Missouri placed Surecrop at the top of the list for 3 consecutive 

 years with 10,500 quarts per acre. In West Virginia it was second and in Indiana it is now of- 

 ficially recommended. In 1960 it produced 7,480 quarts per acre on Long Island, New York. 



Because of its great vigor Surecrop may produce too many plants so for best results be 

 sure to keep the bed fairly narrow with several inches between each plant. 



25 plants $1.35; 100 plants $3.60; 1000 for $18.00. Complete price list, page 18. 



The following quotation is from Bulletin 741, University of Missouri Agricultural Experiment 

 Station, November, 19.j9. "Surecrop appears to be an excellent variety for Missouri. It is a high- 

 yielding, attractive berry and grows vigorously. It shows some leaf diseases but not nearly as sus- 

 ceptible as Blakemore or Armore."
