Cluster of Lindberg 



I inrlK^i'O' This is a new variety which we fruited for the 

 i^inUDt^rg* |^j.g|- ^[yy^q lagt season in our trial grounds, they 

 have also been tested in a Virginia Experiment Station which 

 speaks very highly of them. They were originated by a Mr. Scott 

 along the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia, and were so highly spoken 

 of we obtained a few plants for our trial ground. We found they 

 were all that could be desired in an early berry of extra large size. 



Lindberg produces strong, large, disease resisting plants, showing no 

 sign of rust or other ailments common with many varieties of strawberries, 

 producing enough plants for a nice fruiting bed but should be set about 15 

 or 18 inches apart in the row and they seem to have the ability to produce 

 this amount of plants in any type of soil as we have tried them in both light 

 and heavy soil and the bed in both cases was the same. Fruit ripens almost 

 with Premier and is very much larger, even larger than Cooper, is very firm, 

 medium dark red clear through, of irregular conical shape, of highest quality 

 £ind of excellent flavor. In our estimation Lindberg is a real winner either 

 for commercial market, home garden or local sale, and we believe one of the 

 greatest early varieties yet introduced. To show our faith in this variety 

 should they fail to come up to our description in every way we will gladly 

 refund the purchase price, so you cannot go wrong in ordering a few of these 

 plants this spring. Our supply of plants is limited.
