2 HENDERSON'S POT-GROWN STRAT^^ERRY PLANTS 



HENDERSON'S 

 POT-GROWN STRAWBERRY PLANTS 



are much superior to the ordinary ground layers usually sold, as there is no loss of 

 fine roots Ln taking them up, consequently transplanting scarcely checks their growth. 



Plants wUl be ready about August 1st, and if set out any time before September 

 15th they should grow into fine plants and bear a full crop of luscious fruit the next 

 season. 



Send in your orders at once, as we fill orders in the rotation they are received. 



Strawberries require rich, wcU-tiUed soil, the plants should be set 15 inches apart, in rows 2 feet apart, 

 100 plants will plant 4 rows, 30 feet long. Firm the plants well in the soil, keep thoroughly cultirated and cut 

 off all runners. In the middle of Decernber cover the beds to a depth of 3 inches with salt meadow hay, straw 

 or leaves. In April, as soon as the plants show an indication of groicth, push the corering away from the plants 

 lo alloxe them to come up through. This "mulching" protects the plants from the cold in winter and the heat 

 in summer, heeps the fruit clean and prevents the growth of weeds.

 appearance. The berries, when good
