EXTRA LARGE BERRIES 

 LATE — EXTRA FINE FLAVOR 



V TRT'S-F"RF"F' 



During the past few years Armore has 



gained greatly in popularity in the north- 

 eastern states. Partly this is due to its close 

 reseiiiblance to the well known Catskill. In 

 fact, Armore could almost be considered n 

 late-season Catskill. Its berries are very 

 large and have a nice bright color that makes 

 them very attractive. The flesh color is ligh! 

 red and the quality is excellent. It is good 

 for freezing. 



An outstanding feature of this variety is 

 its high yields — tests in Ohio have shown 

 over 12.000 quarts per acre and over 13,000 

 quarts were reported from New York. Ar- 

 more is a very good plant maker and on most 

 ^oils will make a good fruiting bed without 

 (lifiiculty. In fact some care is necessary to 

 prevent the beds from becoming too thickly 

 matted since this drastically reduces yield 

 and quality. This variety is best suited to 

 cool climates. Rayner's registered virus-free 

 stock of Armore will prove that this is a fine 

 variety.

 tion wherever it can be grown success- 

 fully. Its extra large, beautiful berries 

 bring a premium price over all other va- 

 rieties in New Jersey but it appears that 

 this berry may be limited as to where it 

 will grow properly. We recommend that 

 you give this variety a trial for if suc- 

 cessful you will really be proud of those 

 beautiful berries — so big that 8 or 10 

 will fill a quart. The plants require good 

 fertility and plenty of moisture for best 

 results and they are somewhat subject to 

 leaf troubles. Rut if you like money you 

 should try .Ierseyl)elie for it brings the 

 l)est prices. All these features give .ler- 

 sey belle unusual sales appeal. Ripe ber 

 ries have a dry flesh and thus are quite 

 well suited for commercial use. The flav- 

 or is not as good as in some varieties an( 

 the plants are not as vigorous as some. 

 However the big feature of Jerseybelle is 

 its large berries — the biggest of any va- 

 riety we have seen.

Last year I won first prize of the Xew Canaan Horticultural Society with my Jerseybelle straw 

 berries. To keep the birds away I put strings of pennants, such as are used at gras stations, over my 

 rows,
