variety, and 
still popular 
with some 
srowers. A ber- 
ry of fair size 
and (lavor, pro- 
d uftive. Good 
plant malier. uiif uf bi-sl berries to resist 
spring frosts, not very firm, still firm 
enough for near markets. Medium early, 
EARLY OZ.AHK (Per.). A wonder- 
ful large berry of excellent flavor, round 
as a dollar and nearly as big, firm, and 
a berry that should outclass all other 
varieties. Foliage erect and very at- 
tractive. Supposed to be a seedling of 
Aroma and Excelsior. 
Dunlap. 
GANDY (Per.). One of 
the leading late varieties 
with fruit growers all over 
the country. The plant is 
a strong grower, fruit is 
large and firm, does not 
yield as heavy crops as 
some; requires strong soil 
and fertilizers to do its best. 
It is very late and a big, showy berry. Gandy is al- 
ways quoted at the highest price in every market. It 
is the finest looking fruit and sells quickly at top 
prices. You will not make a mistake if you want 
some Gandy for late fancy berries. We have a fine 
stock. 
GLEN ftlAKY (Bise.v). A well known variety, 
bright green foliage, upright grower. The Glen 
Mary is only senii-staminate. The berries are big, 
dark red beauties, with prominent seeds of bright 
yellow; the meat is rich and juicy, and crimson in 
color. They are of such high flavor that when once 
eaten more are wanted. As a good, firm shipper It 
is very popular; for fancy market there are few, if 
any, better, and for this reason it is popular with 
both the large and small grower. We have reduced 
the price on this popular variety. 
GIBSON (Per.). A wonderful new Strawberry. 
Gibson commences to bear with Senator Dunlap, 
Warfield, etc., but owing to its wonderful productive- 
ness it continues till quite late, so we class it with our 
medium late varieties. It is a very strong grower, 
with long roots that withstand dry weather, and has 
plenty of dark green foliage to protect its enormous 
crop of fruit from the direct rays of the sun. 
The vines are loaded with berries. You will hardly 
understand how the plants can produce such quanti- 
ties of fruit. 
Berry is extra large. One of our very largest 
Strawberries. 
Beautiful dark glossy red. The flesh of the berry 
is red clear through. Calyx bright green, adding to 
its beauty and market value. 
Flavor, as fine as can be found in any strawberi-y; 
a perfect table and canning berry and owing to its 
tough skin is one of the very best shipping varieties. 
Nearly round and regular. 
Fruit stems are plenty, strong and upright. This 
keeps the fruit out of the sand, where they are clean 
and easy to find and pick. 
The Gibson has been grown extensively in this 
county for several years, and is one of the most prof- 
itable commercial strawberries in the great "Fruit 
Relt." Will produce 6.50 cases on an acre. Growers 
are setting Gibson in large lots.
