STRAWBERRIES .—Fraisiers.—Fragaria vesca. 



Remarks. — The Proprietors have in connection with G. W. Huntsman, Esq., Secretary of the Horticultural 

 Society, investigated with great care the relative merits of the different varieties of Straw bernes, and the infe- 

 rior and barren kinds have been rejected. The present collection forms the climax to which this favoritefruit 

 has attained, and the whole are under the most careful supervision, and all are true and correct as described. 

 They occupy an acre of ground and form the most estimable collection that exists in this or j^ny other coun- 

 try. A great number of seedlings are also under culture from which without doubt many highly estimable 

 new varieties will be obtained. 



In regard to size, the comparisons are always made in relation to varieties of the same class. V. P. in- 

 dicates those that are very productive. 



N. B. No less than a dozen are sold except of those priced per pair.
