POCAHONTAS 



EXTRA BIG YIELDS OF HIGH QUALITY BERRIES. EXCELLENT 



FOR BOTH COMMERCIAL 

 AND HOME PLANTINGS. 



The features which make Pocahon- 

 tas so outstanding: are its tremendous 

 yield, of large, high-quality berries, and 

 exceptional plant vigor. Pocahontas 

 was released by the U. S. Dept. of 

 Agriculture in 1954 and has rapidly be- 

 come the leading commercial variety 

 in many areas. Likewise, it is one of 

 the very best strawberries for home 

 gardens. In official tests in many states 

 Pocahontas has consistently ranked 

 near the top for production. Of special 

 significance are the many enthusiastic 

 reports from berry growers who find 

 Pocahontas to be the best strawberry 

 they have ever known. From Texas to 

 Georgia and northward to New York 

 and Iowa this is a variety that is sett- 

 ing new records for production and 

 profits. In the eastern area of Mary- 

 land. Virginia, and North Carolina, Po- 

 cahontas is a leading commercial va- 

 riety since its firm, large berries can be shipped long distances to market and still maintain 

 their attractive appearance. 



Pocahontas ripens in mid-season and produces large berries that "hold their size" for the 

 entire season. They have a bright red, firm skin and a fine red flesh. The flavor is excellent 

 if the berries are allowed to ripen fully before picking. If picked too soon, Pocahontas is rather 

 tart and in the northern states this tartness seems to be more evident than in warmer areas. 

 For preserves and freezing Pocahontas is excellent. 



Another fine feature of Pocahontas is its unusual plant vigor which results in good growth 

 in nearly any type of soil. In fact, it will make too much vine growth in some locations and 

 then it is necessary to control runner production or the yield will be reduced. Excellent results 

 have been obtained with Pocahontas when it is planted in June or July under irrigation. A 

 bed of well-spaced plants is developed which produces very big berries the next spring. The de- 

 mand for Pocahontas has increased so greatly that it is difficult to supply enough plants. 

 So if you want this wonderful berry be sure and place your order early.

The 1,000 Pocahontas I bought from you in 

 1961 has really made me a nice crop of large, 

 sweet, berries. I have tried many different kinds 

 cf strawberry plants from different companies 

 but from now on I am sold on your Pocahon- 

 tas. Eramett Sharp

Last year we bought 23 of your Pocahontas, 

 planted them 36 inches apart, and permitted 

 cnly 11 runners from each plant to take root. 

 This spring the total yield was 135 quarts 

 which is equal to 21,900 quarts per acre.

I have never seen any strawberries like the 

 Pocahontas — they are wonderful. Very large 

 berries — the demand for them is so great I 

 have to turn customers away. Many people 

 have told me that they have never seen such 

 beautiful berries. I put them in exhibit in the 

 federated Garden Clubs of New York State, 

 Inc. I won 1st prize special award and also 

 award of merit — thanks to Kayner's good 

 plants. They also told me this was the high- 

 est award given to anyone in New York State in 

 17 years.

In April, 1960 I received 200 Pocahontas and 

 100 Catskill from you and only lost 2 plants. 

 This was my first attempt to raise strawber- 

 ries. We cared for them as you recommended 

 and in 1961 to my amazement, we picked 537 

 quarts of the nicest berries I ever saw.
