SAINT ANTOINE OE TADOUE. 
SAXNT JXNXOINE DE E ADOUE. 
The result of a cross of St. Joseph and Royal Sovereign, and is distinguished from St. Joseph most essentially 
by its more vigorous fruiting stems. The fruit is larger and finer than St. Joseph, and of a most excellent flavour, 
fii-m, and of good keeping qualities. Improvement on St. Joseph. It hs.s also proved to be a good forcing variety. 
How singular, ripe fruit and flowers on the same truss at one time. 
This variety is of great excellence and of the utmost importance as a grand dessert fruit to alt who enjoy the lovely 
and exquisite flavour of British Queen, as it not only produces a good crop of ordinary -sized fruit in the usual season but 
with good watering in dry weather and protecting in wet it throws up trusses of flowers and fruit all the remainder of 
the season. Mr. Cannell, Senr., looks upon it as the most invaluable continuous summer and autumn-fruiting variety 
in cultivation. For pots it is most indispensable, but it has unfortunately one fault— that is — its flower and fruit stalk 
is too short, and to whoever remedies this in a seedling plant, possessing all the merits of St. Antoine de Padoue but 
with good long and strong fruit stalks, we are prepared to pay £25 for the entire stock, or if immune from white 
fungus £50. 
Open Ooound Runners, Is. per dozen; 5s. per 100. In pots, 2s. per dozen; 16s. per 100. 
We respectfully solicit orders for ours, the finest plants and most com- 
plete collection in Eng'land. Swanley is the larg'est and best 
Strawberry-gfrowing district in the World. 
S6V6U Acres grown entirely for the Runner Plants, at a distance of 4 ft. from plant to 
plant, on purpose so that every plant is true. 
Strawberries, like Potatoes, are always more fruitful when given a change of soil, consequently success 
depends a good deal on having runners from a purely dififerent soil. 
Being located in the midst of thousands of acres of all the best Strawberries and Raspberries enables us to offer 
fine plants, and good sure cropping kinds at the lowest prices. 
Swanley has again this season far excelled all other localities for its quantity and quality of fruit. 
WIRE STRAWBERRY SUPPORTS, 2s. per dozen ; 10s. per lOG.
