Lupton Is Beautiful In Appearance 
BEAUTY. A midseason, perfect flowered berry of great beauty. Smooth 
berries of light color. Not as firm as some, but nice for nearby market. We 
are sorry, but we believe Beauty is disappointing in some locations and we 
cannot recommend it for commercial planting in the south. Try a few on 
your land for home use and fancy, roadside marketing. 
WASHINGTON. From Washington State. Large, dark red. Midseason 
to late. Very productive. It is so sweet that it is called “Honey Sweet” by 
some growers. Give it a trial this spring. 
LUPTON. If you wish fancy late berries plant Lupton. Compare it 
with the justly famous Chesapeake in size, beauty and quality. In product¬ 
iveness we place Lupton before Chesapeake and we believe it will do better 
over a larger range of country and a greater variety of soil. The demand 
for Lupton is increasing as a late market berry. Plant it on good rich soil 
for best results. 
CHESAPEAKE. A beautiful, firm, large, glossy, attractive berry. Tt 
seems at home in the New England and middle Atlantic States. A great late 
market berry. On suuitable soil in a fertile condition this is one berry that 
you will be glad to grow. 
GREENWOOD. One seedling selected from thousands grown by C. F. 
Bowman, near Greenwood, Del. This is a late berry, large to very large, 
glossy bright red, of superior flavor and will sell in any market. The most 
outstanding quality of this beautiful berry is its long keeping qualities. The 
introducer is willing to make an affidavit that he picked a quart basket of 
this variety and placed it under an apple tree and one week later not over 
ten berries were unfit for market. During the week there were two light 
rains. This berry will keep several days longer than Blakemore under simi¬ 
lar conditions and Blakemore is considered one of the longest keeping varie¬ 
ties. It is an early berry while Greenwood is a late one. This will give a 
long shipping season and be sure to secure some of the better prices. We 
believe that Greenwood will equal, or replace some of the good late varieties 
such as Gandy, Lupton and Chesapeake. We are anxious to have this su¬ 
perior berry tried in all sections of the country, so are making the price low 
and at the same rate regardless of quantity ordered.
