 Warfield. Early. Rampant grower, with many runners. Berries glossy, dark

Late Strawberries 



GANDY ^ ne °^ t ^ ie I atest °f a ^ Strawberries. Not only does it bring 



1 the very highest prices, but yields tremendous crops of a qual- 

 ity that leaves nothing to be desired in flavor, texture, color and keeping 

 qualities. Bright red, with somewhat smooth surface. Foliage broad and 

 dark green. Berries are borne on long, upright stems, well above the leaves 

 and dirt. Will not spoil if picking is neglected for a few days after they are 

 ripe. As a late market sort and long-distance shipper, the best kind we have 

 grown. Plant is a perfect bloomer, strong and vigorous, but should be set 

 near other bisexuals. The heaviest crops and most perfect fruit will grow on 

 heavy, rich, bottom land. Our best-paying late berry. 



Aroma. Late. Strong, sturdy plants; abundant crops nearly always, even 

 when weather and soil are unfavorable. Berries large, conical or round, very 

 regular, dark, glossy red, quality excellent. 



Big Joe. Brilliant red, with bright green calyx; flavor delicious; splendid for 

 table or preserving. 



Brandywine. Late. Strong, upright with erect fruit stems. Abundance of 

 large berries; good color and shape; peculiar and very fine flavor. Ripens 

 mid-season until blossoms are killed by frost. 



Chesapeake. Late. Fruit uniformly large, firm, and without green tips; does 

 best in rich, damp land. 



Fendall. Strong, vigorous, clean, healthy; 2 inches higher than any other 

 variety we have. Foliage light green and has not shown the slightest blemish. 

 Berries equal any in size and, unlike most large kinds, are of delicious flavor. 



McAlpin. A new berry; exceptionally strong grower; an excellent sort for 

 local markets. 



Nick Ohmer. Medium to late. Popular sort. Berries beautiful carmine, 

 large, firm; unusually delicious flavor. Long fruit-stems. Fine shipper for 

 fancy trade. Leading variety with large growers. 



Sample. Late. Large size, excellent quality, bright red, very firm, rich. A 

 standard shipping variety; also fine for home use. Fruit of uniform size. 



Wm. Belt. Large and handsome fruit; bright red, dotted with golden yellow 

 seeds; unsurpassed for table use.
