NEW STRAWBERRIES. 
SCARLET QUEEN (New 1891). 
A most noble Strawberry ! An earlier and better- 
flavoured Paxton, and the finest early variety yet intro- 
duced. Very early, large, bright coloured, richly flavoured, 
and of handsome appearance. Plant vigorous and prolific. 
Scarlet Queen is a seedling from Noble, fertilized by 
King of the Parlies, and coming in between these two fine 
early sorts, both of which are some days in advance of 
other good Strawberries. Fruit well-formed, of hand- 
some conical shape. Colour a bright vermilion-scarlet, 
f^ueen-like flavour. Habit strong, with bold foliage. Very 
prolific, excellent quality and appearance as a table Straw- 
berry; its firmness, brightness, and permanency of colour 
especially adapt it for early market work. 
Price ill per 100; 12s. per doz. 
In small pots, half-price extra.
