REDSTAR 



VIRUS 

 FREE 



LATEST OF ALL REGULAR VARIETIES 



Redstar is another of the fine strawberry varieties, 

 originated by Dr. G. M. Darrow of the United States 

 Department of Agriculture. It was released in 1933 

 and has consistently been a favorite with growers who 

 want an extra-late strawberry. Redstar ripens a week 

 or more after the regular late varieties. The berries 

 are large, deep red, and have a large cap. Many of the 

 berries have a flat, wide shape. The flesh color is good 

 and the flavor and quality is very good. Foliage of 

 Redst-ar is very tall, and the leaves are extra large. 

 Rayner's virus-free stock is extra vigorous. We recom- 

 mend it mainly for home plantings in the northeast 

 where extra lateness is desired,

Temple was the first strawberry variety developed for resistance to the red stele disease. 

 Its excellent flavor makes Temple a favorite midseason variety for many growers. 



The berries are a fine dark red color and are firm and of good quality. In moist, fertile 

 soil the plants made a good fruiting bed. Temple is adapted primarily to the northeastern area.

Friedens, Penna. August 13, 1958 



Last year I purchased 500 Stelemaster strawberry plants from you, and this year I picked 746 

 quarts. This is the first time I ever grew Stelemaster, and I like them very much.

STELEMASTER

COMBINES OUTSTAND- 

 ING PRODUCTION WITH 

 SUPERIOR RESISTANCE 

 TO RED STELE 



In soils where the red stele disease 

 is a problem Stelemaster can be the 

 difference between a good crop and a 

 failure. It was developed by the U.S. 

 Department of Agriculture because of 

 the increasing need for superior re- 

 sistance to red stele. Stelemaster rip- 

 ens early and produces elongate, firm 

 berries of good size. The flavor and 

 quality are good. Under good grow- 

 ing conditions Stelemaster can produce 

 very high yields and will have vigorous 

 growth. However, it is not well suited 

 to poor or sandy soils. If the red stele 

 disease is a problem, we recommend a 

 trial planting of Stelemaster for the 

 early variety.
