NEW LATE VARIETY! 
8 :a “LAXTON’S LATEST.” 
Award of Merit, R.H.S. , 1904. 
Raiser’s description, abridged. — Without exception, the very latest 
Strawberry to ripen its fruit, and is at least a week later than Waterloo 
and other lates. Raised from a cross between Latest of All and a very 
fine late seedling, but is entirely distinct. The fruit is very large , conically 
wedge-shaped, very firm flesh, and exceedingly rich and luscious in flavour . 
The colour is a deep rich crimson throughout — not so dark as Waterloo— 
with a beautiful shining skin, giving it a very taking appearance. The 
foliage is thick and leathery, and the habit robust and strong; altogether 
a great improvement in lates and likely to remain so for some yeais to 
come. We believe this will also make a fine market Strawberry.
