PREMIER (Very Early, Perfect) 



One of our most successful berry growers describes Premier as 

 follows: "The money-making king of all extra-early varieties. I 

 have never found anything to equal it. The berries are large, 

 beautifully formed and bright red all the way through. It is 

 delicious in flavor. I have fruited it five years and like it better 

 every year, and if it has any weak points have not found them."

 glossyrfinish shading to a deep scarlet on the underside. The flesh

SUCCESS (Early, Perfect)

 garden, as it can always be depended upon for a good crop of large 

 berries of uniform shape of a bright flame color. $1.00 per doz.;

 fine quality one of the very best. It is grown by the acre for 

 fancy fruit. It is of regular form, of bright, glossy red, the ideal 

 color for a strawberry. $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100; $60.00

Dreer's "Home Garden" Collection of Strawberries 



All Pot-Grown Plants which will Produce a PULL CROP of Berries next summer. 



Notwithstanding the care we take in keeping our list down so as to include only varieties of sterling merit, the amateur finds difficulty 

 in making a selection that will produce a bountiful supply of the finest fruit from the beginning to the end of the season. It is for such 

 that we offer this collection, made up of Senator Dunlap and Premier for early, William Belt and Big Joe for mid-season. 

 Lupton for late, and Champion Everbearing for an autumn bearing variety, all of them sorts which adapt themselves to the most 

 varied conditions of soil and climate, and which, in our judgment, combine in the highest degree all the quahties which high-grade straw- 

 berries should have: 



6 each of the "Home Garden" Berries, 36 in all, for $3 00 



12 each of the "Home Garden" Berries, 72 in all, for 5 25 



25 each of the "Home Garden" Berries, 150 in all, for... . .$10 00 

 50 each of the "Home Garden" Berries, 300 in aU, for 19 00 



Autumn-Fruiting or Everbearing Strawberries 



After careful trials we have selected the two varieties offered below as the most desirable. Under ordinary conditions they produce 

 their main crop of fruit at the same time as other varieties and keep on bearing until frost. The proper plan is to cut off all budsas 

 they appear until late in July, and thus conserve the strength of the plants for the faU crop. Treated in this way an abundant crop of 

 berries may be looked for during September and October, or if the disbudding of parts of the plants is discontinued late in June an almost 

 continuous crop of this luscious fruit may be secured throughout the growing season. Good cultivation is essential to bring about the best 

 results, a liberal mulching during the summer is beneficial, and the plants should not be allowed to suffer for lack of water at any time. 



CHAMPION EVERBEARING 



A most promising hardy variety from Michigan, of strong, 

 vigorous habit and producing a very heavy yield of fine dark red, 

 delicious berries from July until frost. $1.50 per doz.; $10.00 perlOO. 



PROGRESSIVE 



The most prolific fruiting; berries of fair size and produced in 

 great abundance; they are of'attractive deep, glossy crimson color 

 and of good flavor. $1.25 per doz.; $8.00 per 100.
