STRAWBERRY PLANTS. 
J. M. THORBURM &<■ Co.. 15 John street, New York, and 
Astoria, Long Island, beg to inform the Horticultural public, that 
they have now ready for delivery, 5000 of Myatt's Klim Straw¬ 
berry Plants which they have proved by fruiting in beds for two 
seasons past, and can with confidence recommend this excellent 
Strawberry to the most limited grower. In England, where it 
originated, it maintains to this day its celebrity, and in Covent 
Garden market, London, yields to no other sort than the BriUsh 
Queen, which the piiza is the parent of. It is of a large size 
fine pine flavor, and cockscomb form, bright red color, and erect 
habit. Price for strong rooted plants in pots, 75 cts. per dozen • 
out of pots from the bed. $3 per hundred. 
Also, Myatt's British Queen , unrivalled for every excellent 
quality, has fruited splendidly in a large bed the present season, 
and is indispensable to the smallest cultivator. No new sort in 
England equals it for general good qualities: nor in this country 
approaches it. Strong rooted plants in pots, $1 per dozen, and 
from the bed strong plants, $5 per hundred. 
Also, Prince Albert, very large and fine, great bearer, fine 
shape and beautiful color. $1 per dozen ; $5 per hundred. It is 
one of the best sorts for forcing in pots. 
Also, Hovcy's Seedling , a well known good sort. $1.50 per 
hundred ; $5 per thousand. 
Also, Ross's Phcenix, one of the best American varieties, well 
known around Hudson and Albany as a fine productive kind, 
$1.50 per hundred ; $5 per thousand. 
Also, Scotch Pine Apple, a very bright colored, oblong fruit, of 
a sprightly pine apple flavor. $1.50 per hundred; $5 per thousand 
The above are quoted at prices which will encourage any one 
to plant a good sized bed at once. They will produce moderately 
next spring, and abundantly hereafter. 
Strawberries, to bear fruit in perfection, should be kept clear 
of runners which can be used for forming new beds. A covering 
of three inches stable manure in winter is very serviceable” 
which fork in early in the spring. Keep well clear of weeds and 
a good crop will follow. Place the plants 18 inches apart in the 
rows, and an alley of two feet between the rows. 
Orders will meet prompt despatch and careful packing and for 
warding.
