Roadside — (Bisexual). 
This plant originated in Delaware, and has been cnltivated for the last four 
years to a large extent. It is an early berry, medium laige and firm; a good ship 
per. When a buyer buys this berry once, he is sure to call for it again. This 
variety is very hardy, and will stand most any climate. It is usually planted on 
dark loamy soil for best results. 
Gandy — (Bisexual). 
Too well-known to need any further description. This is the standard variety 
all over the country. Should be planted in swampy land, if possible; otherwise, 
in clay land, or medium land of springy order; never on dry sandy land. 
Bubach— (Pistillate.) 
It is too well-known to need any further introduction. Very productive, with 
extremely large berries. This is the tenth year that we have had this grand vari- 
ety in our fruiting beds. The demand for these plants has no equal. Woul<l ad- 
vise you to put some Bubaclis in your order from a medium to late berry. 
Haverland — (Pistillate). 
This is an old and well-known variety that has been tested for a generation. 
It is just as good to-day as it ever was. The plant is large, a strong grower, en- 
tirely free from rust and diseases, bears enormous crops of very large bright red 
berries. .-Mthougli a pistillate variety, but very easily pollenized. No one start 
ing in growing strawberries would regret planting the Haverland. 
Glen Mary — (Bisexual.) 
Glen Mary is a veritable giant, in both fruit and foliage; the shape of the 
berry is varied. The demand for this variety grows by leaps and bounds. The 
big .dark red berries, with their prominent seeds of bright yellow- lie in piles 
around the hills and form so tempting and attractive appearance, as to command 
immediate sale, when the customer has once tasted of the juicy, rich and highly 
flavored fruit, the demand for more is inevitable. Asa shipper, it is not surpassed; 
and for this reason is an especial favorite among the extensive growers of straw- 
berries who ship their fruit long distances. Another element of popularity, is the 
fact that its roots are long and bring up moisture from great depths below the 
surface ; thus making it an ideal variety in dry seasons, or in climates of limited 
rain fall. The foliage is extra large, growing upright and <lark green in color. 
It should always be remembered, however, that Glen Mary is not strong as a pol- 
lenizer, and should be planted near some other bisexual of even season. 
Tennessee Prolific — (Bisexual.) 
This grand variety we have had in our fruiting beds; for several years one of 
the best market sorts; good shipper; succeeds everywhere. The plants are vigor- 
ous aud productive of large, bright showy fruit. This variety is one of the best 
to plant with some imperfect variety. Has always in every respect given me splen- 
did results.
