SUPERFECTION 



World's finest Everbearer 



We favor Superfection over all other everbearers that we have tried primarily 

 because it is the best in producing berries when you want them — in late summer 

 and fall. All everbearing varieties for satisfactory results should be planted in hills 

 with the runners removed. The Ohio System, described on page 30, has enabled 

 many growers of everbearers to have much more pleasure and profit from their 

 plantings. Superfection, under good conditions, makes an adequate number of 

 plants. Under very good conditions they set plants almost like Blakemore. Under 

 conditons of extreme heat and drought they will almost completely die out unless 

 irrigated. Where grown in the hill system, described on page 30, with all the runners 

 removed there is usually little trouble in getting a good stand of plants and fair 

 to good crops of fruit, depending on weather conditions, particularly adequate 

 moisture. 



Scoffed at as of little value by commercial growers for many years the new 

 sawdust mulch spaced plant system of growing and varieties like Superfection 

 have made everbearers a real asset to your home garden and in favorable locations 

 a profitable money crop. 



Superfection berries are light in color and quite attractive in appearance. 

 They are firm enough to ship moderate distances but mostly they are used at home 

 or sold on local markets. The flavor is quite tart but with sugar added Superfection 

 makes a very fine addition to late summer and fall desserts. 



All our plants of Superfection are grown from virus free stocks. They are well 

 rooted, true to name and strong plants, giving you your best chance of having good 

 results with everbearers. Price list page 32. 



Rice Co., Minn., June 1, 1962. 'The 1,000 Superfection plants were of excellent quality and we 

 were very pleased with them. They were set the day we received them and due to ideal weather 

 (cloudy, cool and wet) they came through in fine shape. We are looking forward to buying more 

 plants from you next year." THOMAS CRAVEN. 



GEM 



Superfection is also sold as Gem, which 

 was the original name. Also the plants which 

 we bought as Brilliant from two sources 

 proved to be identical with Gem and Super- 

 fection. With virus free plants to eliminate 



differences in vigor of individual stocks you 

 will find Gem and Superfection identical. 

 Order them by either name and you will have 

 the best of the everbearers. Price list page 32.
