GREAT CROPS OF STRAWBERRIES AND HOW TO GROW THEM 
R M. Kellogg Co.. Three Rivers, Mich. 
Enormous, P. (Female) 
MEDIUM TO LATE. Pistillate. The name of 
this variety is suggestive of its characteristics, 
and it is famous for the very large quantities of 
big berries it produces. The berries are broad 
and wedge-shaped, with a crimson-colored sur- 
face and dark -yellow seeds. The calyx is dark 
green and lies flat on the berry, and the stem re- 
mains bright and green long after the berries are 
picked, which aids in retaining a bright appear- 
ance after reaching the market. The flavor of 
this variety is as excellent as its size is great, 
and the meat is a deep pink and very juicy. It is 
a very popular variety for family trade. The fo- 
liage is large, with broad, nearly round, light- 
green leaves, and short heavy fi-uit stems. The 
call for this variety grows each succeeding year, 
and after sixteen years of experience with Enor- 
mous, we can with confidence advise our friends 
to set them extensively. Enormous may be placed 
among the universally successful varieties. 
Brandywine, B. (Male) 
LATE. Bisexual. One of the most universally 
popular berries ever grown, a popularity that 
has been won on merit. The Brandywine grows 
immense quantities of big red berries, deep blood 
red to the center, and possessing a flavor peculiar- 
ly its own and very delightful. Very prominent, 
bright yellow seeds make a fine color contrast 
with the blood-red of the fi-uit. It is one of the 
most popular varieties from San Diego to Van- 
couver on the Pacific coast, and is a favorite in 
most of the states east of the Rocky Mountains. 
The foliage of this variety is very large and of 
an upright nature, with a dark green, leathery 
leaf, which affords excellent protection for the 
bloom. Fruit stems grow erect and hold the big 
berries up from the ground. The calyx is very 
large, as the illustration indicates. This is the 
eighteenth year that we have bred this noble late 
variety. Our experience and that of our custom- 
ers everywhere justifies us in recommending it 
most cordially to all our customers.
